I "fell" into buying these shoes when I couldn't find the discontinued 1011 New Balance Motion Control for a decent price in my size.  These were special at Amazon, and I decided to try them.  I am so happy I did.  They have lasted me twice as long as the 1011 and the support is still there.  I had foot surgery for a bunion and now have to wear motion control shoes.  My feet never feel fatigued wearing these, they are highly recommended for anyone needing exceptional support.
