After five times wearing, this pair of New Balance shoe still hurts on the top of my two, right and left, big toes. Also it hurts on the side of my feet. Because I already wear and it looks dirty now, that why I did not want to return it.

I walk a mile to mile and a half every day, on pavement and gravel in this shoe and find it to be very comfortable. I have worn New Balance shoes for several years, though this one was a new model. I am happy with the shoes and very happy with the price through Online Shoes. This was the first time I'd visited your site, but will definitely be a return customer!

Looked good but feels like a size 10 instead of 11 as I usually take. See most said true size, maybe was a mis-mark? Had to return and try a different style.

When first diagnosed with arthritis, I needed a light-weight, supportive, comfortable and long lasting shoe to keep me well balanced. I found New Balance shoes to be exactly what I needed. That was over 7 years ago and I continue to be greatly satisfied. My only complaint is the colors for people in my age group...I'm not fond of hot pink, deep purple, etc. How about a few plain white, black, brown for us?

I'm happy with the price & width (I have a wide foot) and comfort of shoes, but the heel is too large so the shoes slip off my heel as I walk. They're fine for every day wear, but I will get a different pair for exercise. Could be a 1/2 size smaller would have fit me better, but I don't won't to go to trouble with shipping back and re-ordering.

I work for a local box store where I stand and walk for 8 hours a day
on cement and tile floors. These shoes are very good as far as comfort
goes but, the toes curl up and have since I took them out of the box.
I was disappointed in the appearance but, desperate for shoes that
didn't hurt my feet. So, I didn't return them. I don't think
I would recommend them to a friend.

I always wear New Balance and wearing an 11 AA I am always able to buy and wear immediately. This particular shoe ran short. I have a foot problem where I need to wear the true length and the big toe can 't be cramped. I loved the 557 and assumed the 558 would be made the same, it wasn't. Be cautious when ordering. The toe area is more square than rounded and cramped.

I was looking for a good walking shoe and this one is perfect. I have problems with my ankle and this shoe has enough support that I don't have the discomfort after I walk, like other shoes that I've had before. I have never bought shoes online before and was a little concerned about the fit, but they feel and look great. I would purchase shoes again from Onlineshoes.

I try to walk on my treadclimber 30 mins a day, and at least 4 times a week. So far, I've been wearing these shoes almost every day for 3 weeks now. Very comfortable, especially for the price! Breathable, had a nice roomy toe-box. I haven't gotten any sore spots or blisters. I haven't worn them for more than 30 mins at a time, but they are really comfortable for what I use them for. They feel a little snug when I first slip them on, but once I get up and walk, they feel just right and not tight at all. Great shoe...great buy!

Since I had so many choices on "online shoes" I spent well over an hour to make a final selection. I narrowed it down to three choices and after much pondering, I selected this New Balance style. It had the features I was searching and the price was right. I have a permanent back injury and recently I have been experiencing severe pains in my feet which my doctor explained was radiating from my spine. So it was imperative that I selected a new walking sneaker that I could wear daily and that would ease my discomfort providing good support and traction. Living in NYC, the streets here are very hard with many bumps and cracks & if you don't watch carefully you can easily trip. In NYC everyone walks.....rain or snow. But, the minute I put this sneaker on ..I felt immediate relief. I wear this shoe everyday ...sometimes all day long. The only exception I have with this style is that the mesh material does get very dirt especially in the back & around the ankle. Fortunately, it is mostly leather. Otherwise, I highly recommend this sneaker. And, at this point of usage (about 4 weeks) I think I will re-order it again.
