I was hesitant to buy these because of the size complaints in other reviews, but they fit perfectly and are super comfortable. One of the reasons I love new balance is because I walk a lot and typically NBs don't need to be broken in before use. These didn't let me down. Five minutes after they arrived I went on a walk and they were comfortable with great support.

That said... The other reason I've always stuck with NB is because they hold up for years. Unfortunately, the last pair I bought started falling apart after six months and were completely unwearable in less than a year.

I'm hoping that last pair was a fluke and that this pair lasts longer. If they don't, I'll update this review but for now, I LOVE these shoes. Great fit, awesome support, and super comfortable.
