The shoes did not work out for me. I ordered the wrong size. But Zappos' customer service is amazing! I ordered the shoes about 10 pm one evening, and they were at my house within 12 hours! At no charge! And it was so easy to return the shoes and purchase another pair. I had the right size shoes in another day! Keep up the good work, Zappos.

I forgot to say in my last review of this shoe that because the toe area narrows slightly expect to wear a larger size than normal, at least that is how it worked for me. Most street shoes I wear size 8 to 8 and a half. But in sneakers of various brands I always wore a 9. In this sneaker I wear a 9 and a half. Don't worry about that though; the style of the shoe does not make your foot look giant sized! Looks perfectly normal and fits great. It was surprising to me to wear a larger size, but fit is everything and this shoes fits awesome. I can wear it all day long and my feet feel well-supported and happy.

I strongly recommend this shoe. I went to a New Balance store where they measured my foot and had me stand on a device that took an imprint of the sole of my foot from which they could determine which of their shoes would fit my particular foot best. I tried their suggested shoes, of which this was one, but I also tried some of their other shoes and by far and away the ones they recommended to me fit my foot much better, so I recommend this process if you have a New Balance store near you. I bought my first pair of these shoes from them but now that I know the fit is perfect I am ordering additional backups pairs from Zappos to have when these wear out. I have the hot pink Breast Cancer support shoe and it is super cute, I've gotten continuous compliments on it from both women AND men. This shoe is lightweight, supportive and comfy straight from the box with no break in period at all. My favorite sneaker I have ever worn and the fact that New Balance donates a percentage of sales of the pink shoe to breast cancer organizations is a super bonus.

Shoe Arch: Moderate arch support

The shoes are beautiful but when trying to wear them at work, 8 hours, on my feet the whole day I had quite a bit of foot pain. In their defense, I have foot pain with all shoes after working all day. Zappos was amazing as always with their return. I called them to do an exchange and recieved my new shoes the very next day, before even sending the old ones back. I love zappos and have been a customer for a few years now and will never get shoes anywhere else ever again. I recommend zappos to people all the time and will continue to do so.

Great shoe! I have a very narrow foot. These are good, not great, but I have never found a shoe narrow enough so I would recommend these.

Although I can always use a narrower shoe, I'm grateful that New Balance offers a narrow width. The outer heel support is really stiff (a good thing), but the cushion around the ankle comes up high enough to rub the Achilles tendon uncomfortably.

I have worn several pairs of New Balance running and walking shoes for the last 10 years. These are definately my favorite. The provide great support for running and are great for my narrow feet. They fit true to size and are very comfortable.

These shoes are great. They are fantastic colors. As in they are flashy enough to be noticed but not flashy enough that they are an eyesore. They are comfortable for running around in a hospital environment. This is my first pair of New Balance and I am impressed. I really like them.

These are great running shoes, which I even use them for aerobic class. I generally replace the sole with all my workout shoes. You do not have to replace these. They are comfortable and give cushion at the balls of your feet and good ankle support. This is my second pair.

I love shopping on Zappos because of the selection, the prices and most of all the next day shipping. I was so excited when my New Balance shoes arrived at my doorstep. They are supportive, comfortable and attractive. My arches feel supported, but my foot is allowed to go through normal range of motion. The materials and construction are high quality. I've been a New Balance for for many years and do not plan to switch to another brand of shoe for exercise and daily activities.

Love these shoes! Bought them to train for and walk in the Breast Cancer 3 Day (60 mile walk). I do not have any complaints, these are very comfortable shoes.

I bought these shoes in blue and love them. The fit is great. I\'m a walker, not a runner, but I love how they feel. These shoes have more cushioning than walking shoes do and since I have very narrow feet I can use all the cushioning I can get!

I have wide feet, and I\'ve found that New Balance shoes always fit me well. In most casual and dress shoes, I wear a 7.5 EE. But with New Balance shoes, I always order 8 D. The D width is wide enough, and the generous toe box makes the shoes very comfortable.

Finally, a pair of sneakers that feel good on my feet! I have been trying to recover from Achilles Tendinitis. Not only are these the only pair of shoes/sneakers that have been on my feet in a year that do not hurt, but they are pretty and pink! With my tendon problems and high arches, I highly recommend them!

This is a great fitting shoe. Very comfortable. I ordered half a size larger since I tend toward shin splints. They have worked great and so far I have no shin discomfort while running. However, if I were just to use it as a walking shoe, I would order true to size.

I have problem feet not only are they flat but I also have a problem keeping my balance. These are comfortable and I can walk in them straight. I find these shoes to be true to size and true to width.

I wear a 6 1/2 EE and need my arch supported. These shoes are made just right for the arch support in the right spot. Only drawback is getting used to the extra high padding at the heel. Wore around the house and felt energized up the calf, too. I may be 55, but still dig the bright orange.

I have narrow feet and have always been a fan of New Balance shoes. Size was consistent with my last pair of NB\'s. They are very comfortable and stable (I have weak ankles) and felt broken in on my first run. Would recommend them highly. Only downside is the laces are way too long.

I love these shoes! I work 13 hour shifts at an urgent care clinic so I'm on my feet a lot! When I get home my feet don't even hurt! I have almost flat feet, and these give me great arch support. I bought the navy blue and silver combo and they match just about any color scrubs I wear. I bought them for work, but I find myself wearing them everywhere now! They're very breathable and flexible; it only took a few hours to break them in.

I bought these sneakers for my daughter and she\'ll use them for fitness. She tells me they are true to size, are the proper width and are very supportive. She has always favoured NB for fitness and dancing sneakers and has never been disappointed.

Bought the New Balance shoe after being a Asics wearer, for the Moderate Stability control. Great running shoe, quick dry for all weather running. I have had the shoe about a month and found I had a lot less foot pain with the comfort foot bed. I even walked all over Disneyland for a week with my feet still happy at the end of the day. I would totally recommend if you are a pronator that is looking for some correction.

Awesome WR769. They run true to size on me anyhow. They are lighter on my feet. I did have to have 1 day of breaking them in for a true light weight comfort. Now, I love, love, love them. I get tons of compliments on these hot looking babies. What I love the most is the comfort. I workout with weights, the elliptical and run and these shoes are so versatile. They are 100% comfortable in all my situations. I am very pleased. Thank you New balance for offering a stylish, yet comfy shoe!

The big sale for this product is the cushioning in the step, the expandable material across the top of the shoe, and the breathability of the shoe itself.
