New Balance Men's, 623v3 Training Shoe

These New Balance 623 trainers have been a life saver for me. I use custom orthotics and also use motion control running shoes for walking but my exercise regiment is heavy duty aerobic activity with much lateral movement. I caused some physical damage using the motion control shoes for aerobics till I was finally told what I needed - cross trainers. I got the grey suede ones and now my exercise activity has a new energy level increased greatly and the lateral movement is something I can really get into now. These shoes provide excellent support for the lateral movement. I must admit I cannot speak for their arch support since I do use custom orthotics but these trainers allow me to not always use the motion control shoes. These 623s provide comfort and really feel great. I wear them around the house and for daily activity along with when exercising. I only need to return to the motion control shoes when I will be doing miles of walking at a time and that is due to my severe over pronation. I have very wide feet and got these in 15 4E and they honeslty provide no discomfort at all and feel excellent. I did try this style in leather and found that they did not fit as well as the suede but again I feel it is due to the size of my feet along with my foot conditions. So my final consensus are that these trainers provide excellent comfort and support and make exercising a true pleasure. I also find the style and look of them very stylish and attractive. They look great with jeans, shorts and even casual pants. I will definitely be buying more of these trainers in different color suede and this will be the only shoe I use for exercise. Very grateful to New Balance. These trainers provide me with all I need and now I can exercise without worrying of getting any physical damage.

The shoes look great. I can walk in them, wear them to the office or place a little bit of old man basket ball. They are leather so they are a little stiffer than running shoes and they don't breath that well but conversely they offer good support for pushing off side ways. And leather looks more professional if you want to wear them to the office on a casual day. (Most days are casual days for me.) Here is the thing about the sizing. I wear a size 14 in Brooks shoes and in Asics shoes. If you look at those labels US Men's size 14 means 31 Centimeters to Brooks and Asics. But New Balance says that US Men's 14 means 32 CM to them. A CM is almost half an inch so that makes a difference. It felt fine floating around in the house in the New Balance version of size 14 but not for sports. It is a good idea to spend the extra time and money to get shoes that fit if they are going to get high usage. If your shoes don't fit, then you will get blisters. If you search for a shoe chart online you will find that size 14 means 31 CM to everyone except New Balance. So I returned the 14s and got size 13 which New Balance says is 30.5 CM and they fit fine and perform fine. So if you are in a hurry and need shoes that fit right go to the store, if you have time you can shop on line but you might have to exchange - which I did. BTW the shoes were $6 cheaper through Academy Sporting Goods online than they were through Amazon.

My 11 year old son will be wearing AFOs for quite a few months and needed a shoe that fits. He is normally a size 6.5, maybe 7 and has quite a wide foot. He initially wanted something stylish so I got him the adidas daily and while it is a nice shoe and we sized up to 8.5 so he could fit it, the shoe wasn’t wide enough and he has a hard time putting them on. They also caused pain as they weren’t wide enough and squeezed his feet when walking. We tried these and the New Balance 608 and found those way wider at the forefoot and much better for him, and super comfortable. He sized up to 10 extra wide width.

I have had neuropathy in my feet for 10+ years. It has been difficult to find a shoe that gave me a firm fit and didn't make my feet hurt. I had to start trying different styles and different makes of shoes after I had hammer toe surgery on my right foot. That is when I found these New Balance Men's 623 V3 Casual Comfort Cross Trainer. This shoe gives me the firm fit I need to help with my balance. The shoe does slowly reshape to conform with my feet. Unfortunately, about every six months I have to replace the shoe because while the comfortable fit is appreciated, after six months the shoe doesn't help my balance problem. It feels more like I'm going barefooted. The shoe no longer helps me control my balance sideways and my wobble as I walk becomes becomes worse. If it weren't for my cane I would fall. I have had too many cases of falling sideways into things. No injuries, but scary enough for me to open a new box of New Balance Men's 623 V3 Casual Comfort Cross Trainer shoes and toss out a shoe with a lot of good thread and leather. But, we have to deal with the problems life has dealt us.

This is my...3rd pair I've purchased from Amazon...I think (to lazy to go look through my purchase history. As a front-line healthcare worker I've worn New Balance for many years now. They always fit right and provide wonderful support for being on my feet all day. Rather than try and find the right shoe I wear at the local stores, I switched to getting these off Amazon and it's the only place I'll buy these shoes now. I have a smaller (8.5) size foot overall but a wider (X-wide) soul, if you will, so I need Extra Wide shoes or I am uncomfortable or in pain all day. The size I get on Amazon are comfortable, easy to slip on and off, sturdy, and a perfect fit. I generally go through 1 pair of these a year, as I'm always on my feet. So, the 1-day/Next Day, or even Same Day delivery for these is awesome. Being able to Try-Before-You-Buy is a plus as well for those that still might be skeptical. Two Thumbs Up on these sneakers/shoes! As an aside, I remove the factory insert inside the sneaker and replace it with Ortho inserts as I need more support (have for years no matter the sneaker I get). I just use off-the-shelf Dr. Scholls. The ones where you can use scissors to cut it to size.

I have been buying New Balance cross trainers for the past 20 years. I find them to be comfortable and quality shoes. I wear orthotics so I have to buy shoes that I can take the insoles out and put my orthotics in. The shoes have a very stable walking platform that I like. I've tried other brands like Nike, and Adidas, but New Balance shoes are what work for me.

Para senderismo ligero aguantan y protegen los pies. Literalmente use mi par anterior más de 2000km en bosque sin rocas. solo riachuelos, pastos y arena...

A very comfortable pair of walking shoe. It can also be paired with slacks/jeans.

These are excellent shoes/trainers. Very comfortable with the extra wide fitting, and sizing seems to be about right. I have had several pairs of these shoes now and will buy again although they are quite expensive

Los compre para la escuela, mi hijo los ocupa y la verdad es que salieron bastante resistentes ya que si les ha dado batalla, además de tener un muy buen diseño y me parece un precio accesible, los recomiendo!!
