I first bought these shoes on the recommendation of my podiatrist when I was diagnosed with plantar faciitis. Though I did not receive relief immediately, gradually over a period of about 11 months my feet healed completely. I still wear these shoes almost daily and never have foot pain. I just ordered my fifth or sixth pair. As much as I wear them I would love a different style or color but mostly I'm just thankful for a comfortable, great fitting shoe.

I adore these shoes. I tend to wear only white New Balance shoes and these are mostly white and look great. New Balance are the most comfy exercise shoes I have ever tried.Read More

I have fibromyalgia and started walking for excercise and to combat the symptoms of fibro. These shoes help me walk longer without foot pain. I have a narrow foot and these shoes fit me well and are easily cleaned in the washing machine. I over pronate and they help really well. I just wish they had another color like purple and pink! They look like my Dad's shoes ; )
