Tried these New Balance shoes for an extended travel overseas and they were just perfect. They were lightweight for all day wear and very comfortable. Mine was half a size larger than what I would normally wear. The only issue was that the laces were very long (probably would have better if I had laced it through the last two holes) and would sometimes come loose.

It’s so nice to find extra wide shoes. Perfect fit and comfortable

Best Creative Recreation low tops I have worn to date. The inner sole does not speak as with prior shoes from them since it is now woven into the shoe. Also these shoes last extremely long and the seam where the shoe attaches to the bottom does not detach as it is woven as well. Has lasted me all summer and continues to stay as structurally intact as the day bought. Also the bottom does not "mush" or become flattened over time which is nice to see with the EVA sole.

Very clean and stylish shoe! Comfortable and light. I did think it ran a bit large (long) for what I typically order. It is quite low cut around the ankles... keep that in mind when buying socks.

I got these for someone as a gift. They are comfortable if you like the "no shoe" type of feel. No arch support and not much cushioning, but that's the whole point,. Very unique, and easily fit/molded to your feet.

That's different from other folks with "regular" feet. The bones below my toes are exceptionally wide and yet I have a very narrow heel so many shoes just don't fit me well at all. If I get the toe box area wide enough to accommodate my foot, then the heel area is too wide. I usually use those sticky pads in the heel area to make it snug on my heel. Otherwise I walk out of the shoe. This pair, because they go above my ankle, bypasses the too wide of a heel section. I put on a pair of medium socks (not too thin or too thick), loosened the laces and did have a tiny bit of trouble getting my entire foot in the shoe, but once I did, I laced the shoes up medium-tight and walked around. Usually with shoes I have an initial bit of discomfort - the tops or the soles are stiff or my big toe hits an odd spot inside the shoe or whatever. Not so with these shoes! Aside from listening to a bit of interesting creaking/squeaking from the tops of the shoes when I took a step, the toe box area seemed wider than average shoes and my foot felt very comfortable in the area with no squeezing or discomfort in any way. My heels did not seem to slip around inside the shoes at all, maybe because these shoes hold the ankle fairly still. The leather seems to be of high quality - it has that good smell of quality leather and while leather itself doesn't breathe, the ventilation holes on the top of the toe box and around the ankle area seem to be able to keep the foot cool. I wanted this pair because my left ankle often tries to give way on me due to an old injury. I had a tendon tear so badly several years ago that when it tore, it make a loud crack sound that made me believe I'd broken something. It took over 12 weeks just to be able to put weight on that foot again. Tendons never completely heal so when the weather changes or I do too much walking in flip-flops, that tendon starts giving way and is very painful. These shoes that go over the ankle should help keep the tendon from giving way and/or causing me discomfort. Nice pair of shoes that I will get a great deal of use out of!

These icons have not changed in 20+ years and there’s a reason for it, “don’t mess with perfection”! They are comfortable, clean lines, awesome to look at and can be worn with many different clothing styles. They are never out there this cheap!
