5.0 out of 5 stars New Balance Men's 559
Well built, light weight shoe. It works well for walking and light running. The fit and finish is very good. I like the shoe because it does not feel or look bulky. Shoe is priced right and made in the U.S.A.

3.0 out of 5 stars NB Walking Shoes..Disappoint.
I've been buying NB shoes for years. Always NB 'running' shoes, never bought NB 'walking' shoes. So couple of weeks ago, I decided to get the NB walking shoes (a pair of NW559 & MRW760)for simple walking, casual ware.

I should've heeded the warning! made in few reviews here about those shoes sizes, being smaller than your usual NB shoes. As both shoes where...

5.0 out of 5 stars Good fit, January 21, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
My husband has a history of bone spurs on the soles of his feet. His chiropractor advised him to wear only New Balance sneakers for the excellent arch support.Since wearing NB he has not had a flare up. This is his third pair and it is an excellent fit for him.

4.0 out of 5 stars Comfortable fit, but hot!, September 11, 2010

I've always liked the fit of New Balance shoes, but they don't breathe well, and my feet get really hot. These MW559's are comfortable to wear, and they look great. I'll be glad when cooler weather gets here so my feet won't be so hot, though.

5.0 out of 5 stars Love These Shoes !, October 27, 2011

I am on my feet all day at work and have tried all kinds of athletic shoes trying to find something that stays comfortable for 8 hours. The 559's from New Balance are the best I have found.
I wear them 5 days a week all day and have to do a lot of standing and walking. My last pair lasted me 8 months before the cushioning finally started to give out and I had to replace them. Think of how long they would last if you just wore to walk an hour or two a day! Highly recommend.

I have been a loyal New Balance wearer for years and liked them all till I got these, they started hurting my feet (to the point of limping) after about 3 days of wear.

4.0 out of 5 stars Pretty good, March 12, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
These are pretty good shoes but I have to say they are smaller than the other same size NB walking shoes that I love. Also for some reason both pairs are almost too warm as if they do not breath very well and this pair instead of having cotton laces has something that feels like old plastic shopping bags twisted into twine. I am not sure if the laces are better or worse than cotton but they FEEL kind of cheap.

4.0 out of 5 stars Men's New Balance Walking Shoes, February 26, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
Very nice and comfortable shoes, but it is hard to buy shoes over the internet because you don't know if they will fit. The pair I bought was actually a little small because, from experience, New Balance shoes tend to run a little small.
