When my favorite shoes were offered at a great discount I ordered my second pair of the tan so I have a neat, clean looking pair when needed. The new ones fit the same and appear to be the same good quality as the old ones. The old pair, which I have run though my washing machine several times, is still intact and will be useful for wet weather and outdoor work. I have been wearing New Balance 927s in 7.5 EE for over two years most days, because they are my most comfortable shoes. They have plenty of room for my toes and the laces allow me to snug them around the middle of my feet. I own all three color choices and would love to see a navy or brown version for sale. I like the fact that they are one color all over unlike the majority of athletic shoes.
