I bought a brown pair, and I like them so much I got a black pair.  They are a very sturdy, waterproof shoe that, while not exactly stylish, looks good enough to wear every day in an informal setting.  I find them very comfortable once broken in.  One reviewer complained they were not comfortable.  I did find the top tight at the arch and the shoe a bit stiff until I wore them for for a few days, but I assume that's because, as I say, they really are sturdily built.

Size is true.  New Balance is one of the few companies that offers wide shoes.  I'm glad I found these.
