I wear these shoes for my daily walks. They are very supportive yet light. I have wide feet and a high arch which makes it hard to find shoes that my toes can move comfortably in,I wear sandals year round,yet I can put these shoes on and walk for 5 miles with no pain or tightness.They also have great heel support,so no sore heels to deal with.
Wears this shoe: daily for about 2-3 hours

Tarcel Tunnel Nightmare, Solved with this Shoe

I am an R.N. with tarcel tunnel syndrome (it is like carpel tunnel but in the ankles). I work 12 hour shifts. My Podiatrist recommended New Balance. I love this shoe! It stabilizes my ankles and allows room in the heel for orthodics. I can't believe the difference in my feet when wearing this shoe. The shoes have definitely decreased my pain in my ankles and are allowing them to heal. I recommend any New Balance Running shoe with the number over 800 and a removable insert. I don't believe you would be disappointed in this shoe especially if your looking for great comfort and support. My fellow Nurses are now buying this shoe as well.
Wears this shoe: 12 hour shifts at work.

I think that this is the most comfortable shoe that I have ever worn. I ordered it because I was recovering from arthroscopic surgery on my sub-talor joint and needed a comfortable shoe for over pronators as my old ones were wearing out. When I received the shoe I put it on and thought I would save it for wearing into town etc. It felt so comfortable that i never took it off except for going to bed and going to church. I got gray so it does not show dirt very bad.
Wears this shoe: All of the time except for dress up occasions.
