Always wear new balance but stepped up a notch this time and it is worth the extra price - very comfortable you can feel the difference. Love Shoebuy no hassle shopping I hate going to the store and with free returns this is my solution all the way. Thanks Shoebuy!

I bought this shoe to replace a very good, durable pair of CT801's I had worn out after 2-3 seasons. I was hoping it was just an evolved version of the CT801 but it was nothing of the sort. First I must say that I never even wore the shoe once to play in because I knew I would not like it the minute I tried it on. I have hammer toes and the seam that comes across the top of the toes was extremely uncomfortable, where just about every New Balance shoe I have had prior to this one felt comfortable the first time I put them on. I almost exclusively buy New Balance because I have wide feet (4E), and this is by far the most uncomfortable NB shoe I have ever tried on. It MIGHT be OK for a person with normal feet, but I still sort of doubt it. It just seemed much cheaper and a poorer design than its CT801 predecessor.

This is the first time I have purchased this style. They seem to be well made although a bit heavier than some shoes. The width is not "B" but it is still narrower than most tennis shoes on the market. I would buy this shoe again based on my experience so far. I have a narrow foot and most tennis shoes do not fit.
