Extremely comfortable shoe, July 19, 2008
This review is from: New Balance Women's WR882 Running Shoe (Apparel)
This is an excellent running shoe for someone who likes a soft cushioned sole and a roomy toe. I have worn them for 12 years and keep buying them again and again; I've tried other models and brands, but none of them has been this comfortable.
As noted, there is a lot of cushioning in the sole; I walk 2-4 miles a day in them on city pavement, and stand a lot in my job, and my feet don't feel achy at the end of the day. I have also worn them on multiple-mile hikes on varied terrain with a lot of comfort.
Many running shoes have a straight last, which for me means either that the toes are too narrow or the heels are too loose. The 882 has a wide, rounded toe so there is a lot of toe room while the heel still fits snugly. I haven't found many shoes designed that way, so if you have that kind of fit problem, you will love this shoe.
I also wash the shoes and they come out very well, and the non-slip laces don't come undone. Altogether, they are my favorite shoes for a wide variety of activities.

Great shoes, February 22, 2008
This review is from: New Balance Women's WR882 Running Shoe (Apparel)
These are the best shoes for you if you are on your feet alot. I work in the warehouse of a hospital and I am constantly on my feet. The wide flat bottoms give excellent support. I recommended them to my co-workers and most of them wear them now too. Excellent quality shoes at a very convenient price.

Most Comfortable Shoes, August 18, 2008
These are the most comfortable shoes that I have ever worn. I have a lot of foot problems from Rheumatoid Arthritis so that is saying quite a lot. I have always worn New Balance shoes but these are absolutely the best, light weight, very wide toe box, and not a bad price tag.
