The shoe laces are bright white, which really stand out against the grey. Grey shoe laces would have made a huge difference. But, being New Balance, they are comfortable.
Wears this shoe: Casual dress situation. I don't workout in this shoe.

First found a pair of M498's two plus years ago and like them so much I have worn out two pairs. I saw your company and when I checked you had them and I ordered two pairs. That's how much I like the way they fit and the comfort.
Wears this shoe: They look nice enough to wear with shorts for dress, play, boating, etc.

What can I say about New Balance. My whole family enjoys them. Three out of six of us are in healthcare and five out of six of us wear them. Probably 6-6 would but one is in the navy. These are the only shoes that give the support and stability for the hours that we are on our feet. Our backs have felt better and our feet have been less tired and sore since buying New Balance. We each wear a different number that covers our individual needs. We have been a New Balance family for 4 years now and will never buy another shoe again. Also, buying at Shoebuy.com has saved us $20 to 40 dollars per pair.
Wears this shoe: All the time.
