These shoes are comfy and nice looking! However, I did not like how wide the toe box was for running. Felt like my feet were moving around a little too much which caused some pain in my toes. Great casual shoe though!

I purchased these for my husband and wasn’t quite sure if he would like them or not. I have some fresh foam that I simply love and actually purchased a second pair. He tried them on and wore them to the health club and came back saying they’re very comfortable. I was told I could order him the same shoe in black.

Brought and had to return. Not because of quality but due to size ordered. Size 11 for years but this brand is very oversized. Size 10 fits better and is more true to size. Will remember this when future ordering. Other than that awesome looking shoes and great quality.

I bought this sneaker for walking. After trying on my usual size in a different color in the store, I felt they run about a size too short, though the width is generous. I wanted a dark blue but the selection was only available in men's, so I ordered them and they appear the same as women's. As a comparison, I wear a ladies 10 but in New Balance, need an 11 for comfort in summer heat. I ordered a men's 9.5 and they are very comfortable in heavier socks. If I were to wear sock liners, a men's 9 would be fine. The upper is a light weight material, accommodating to heat. I feel the foot bed is a bit bouncy, helpful when walking. As a note, I have heel cups that I use in my shoes and the slightly larger size helps. I would purchase these again.
Bought both the tan and the navy colors. Looks a little less like a sneaker than my other New Balance. I live in sneakers and it’s nice to find something that looks a little different. As comfortable as the other Fresh Foam styles but a bit smaller went up 1/2 size.
I love the look of these shoes, but the fit is awful! The toe is extremely narrow and uncomfortable. I couldn't wear them for more than a few days without sore feet! I'll never buy a pair of New Balance shoes again.
Very nice shoe, not what im use to as far as qualify from new balance. But definitely a nice stylish shoe that can be used for light activity. Wouldn’t recommend for running or any heavy interval training! Great shoe for the price.
Great shoes at an amazing price. Very comfortable. I use them for everyday wear, not for running. They have just the right balance of support and cushioning for me in a very lightweight package. I did add my own insoles as the factory insoles did not have enough arch support though. I went with an 11.5 wide and they are very roomy in the toe box. The 11.5 D would probably have worked fine but I prefer the extra room since they are for daily wear and I do not use them for running. The materials seem very durable and the uppers are nice and breathable. Amazing value from New Balance!!!
Yes, it's highly frustrating that New Balance changed all their sizing and widths without the common courtesy of letting their customers know. We can choose to get bitter or get better. So now we get the fun of discovering how their new sizing translates to what we were used to.I'm willing to do the work because I'm not aware of another brand that offers 2E or 4E widths. I used wear the old 1080's before they made the sole 10' tall. These Arise v4 have the same sole and thickness of the old 1080's. So if you were a 12 2E in the old 1080's then get size 13 2E , they fit great, and lot's of cool color options.One last note, after ordering 5 different colors, they look different in person than on the website. So better and some worse in my option. Enjoy the journey.
Love New Balance….the variety and comfort. I purchase a few pairs for dress and for everyday!!!! I travel much to Italy 🇮🇹. I stay for months at a time. I walk A Lot! I need great support and all day comfort. And since I travel light, I need some footwear that can dress up a pair of jeans. AND be packable! New Balance provides, perfectly, what I need!
