Very comfortable, June 24, 2010
This review is from: New Balance Men's MC655 Tennis Shoe (Apparel)
I bought these in a size 11.5 D (medium) width. Stats: male, 37, 5'11", 220 lbs, moderatley active.
While there was an initial break-in period, they were well worth the effort. Just getting back into tennis after a long lay-off, they fit perfectly after softening up a bit and adding decent cushioning insoles. No blisters, excellent lateral stability, fairly lightweight. Leather where they should be, mesh where possible to keep feet cool, relatively speaking (I live in Phoenix, will be playing today, 113 degrees.)
Too early to tell if they will be durable, but they seem well constructed.
Compared to similarly priced Adidas, Nike, Asics and Wilson. Asics were close. Adidas were narrow. Nike and Wilson were both terrible; lots of places rubbing against the foot, not smooth inside like the New Balance. Tried more expensive NB's but these seemed the most stable.

MC655 Tennis Shoe, March 16, 2011
This shoe is a replacement for the MC654 Tennis Shoe. It's a great shoe, great fit and very comfortable. Comes true to size.

Tennis shoes, December 9, 2010
Love the 4E wide shoes. It doesnt pinch my toes. Also very light. Dont know I am wearing shoes while I am playing tennis. Amazon pricing lower than the New Balance store plus free shipping and no sales tax makes it very attractive.
