Reviewer: Nurse Bonnie from Stamford, CT

Shoe Size: Felt true to size Shoe Width: Felt true to width
I was born with widw, flat feet that overpronate, recessed kneecaps that lock backwards, and a spine with vertebrae that are prone to 'slipping'. As I do a lot of walking on job and at home, I need a light show with great support and more than adequate cushioning that is wide enough. This is that shoe.
Wears this shoe: At work, doing mileage with the dogs.

Shoe Size: Felt half size smaller than marked Shoe Width: Felt narrower than marked
I really love New Balance shoes. With that being said, 1540s are different than the previous 1122 or 1123s that they replaced with the 1540s. They are smaller and narrower. Eventhough they are updated in style, I had to buy a half size larger and 4E instead of 2 E. I have a very hard time buying shoes because my feet are like Fred Flintstone... wide all the way from little toe to heel, so when I find a shoe that fits( like 1122 or 1123 then I stick with the style and the SL2 last. Not happy they revamped it but am dealing with them.
Wears this shoe: I wear them for walking and all day after work.

I love this shoe! After wearing 1123s for years, I hated to have to adjust to a new shoe. You need to order a 1/2 size larger with this shoe than the 1123s. I've already gone through 4 pairs between work and walking.
Wears this shoe: At work....on concrete floors for 10 hours a day / walking outside

Shoe Size: Felt true to size Shoe Width: Felt true to width
I had major foot surgery a year and a half age and these shoes are the only ones I can wear for work. The look of the shoe isn't as important as how they feel after standing and walking at work. Keep up the good work. Thank You!
Wears this shoe: all the time

Reviewer: Julie from NW Indiana

Shoe Size: Felt half size smaller than marked Shoe Width: Felt wider than marked
I was disappointed in this shoe. It is supposed to be the replacement for the discontinued NB1123. That shoe was great for me. This one runs a little short and also seems very wide in the front of the shoe. It seems to be well made and of good quality, just not right for me. Once I got the length that was right, it felt overall large.
Wears this shoe: I returned this shoe
