I walk three miles a day as part of my rehab and couldn't do it with any other shoe. Recently my hubby has been walking with me and he never owned New Balance before I went and got him his own New Balance sneaker and Now he is hooked..... Best shoe ever full of support in all the right places, Great for walking or working or just comfort You will not be dissappointed"

    "I have narrow and flat feet, and this shoe fits my feet perfectly while letting me slide my orthotics right in..
    I have narrow heels. Most shoes, even the 2A's, rub and irritate my heels because the shoe is too wide in the back. This is the ONLY brand/style I have found that fits my unique feet like a glove.
    From heel to toe they are a perfect fit.

    "I have been wearing New Balance 609 for YEARS as an aerobics instructor. I stocked up on them when they were 'discontinuing' the the previous version. I finally ran out and ordered the 'new' version of 609. They look great and felt great at first. However, only 5 days later, my feet felt terrible. They felt the way they normally do when I need to ditch my shoes and get a new pair. I removed the insole and noticed that after only 5 days of wear, the insoles were almost flat! I had to replace the insoles in only 5 days (not weeks or months!!!!!). Now, they are great! But, I shouldn't have to do that. So if you buy this new 609 styling, just ditch the insoles at the very beginning and you will be ok. I don't know what they did differently."
    Cons: poor insoles
    No, I do not recommend this product.

Unfortunately I need to order on line to get them in a narrow width and my receipt was thrown away so I can't return them."

    "I wore my last pair of 609's into the ground. Had difficulty finding another pair until now. I have high arches and wide feet and these are by far the most comfortable sneakers I have ever owned. My job requires me to be quick on my feet and ready for anything, dress shoes are not an option. If you have to work in sneakers, these are the best!"
