Customer Reviews New Balance FuelCell Walker Elite

Nice shoe for walking. Good cushioning. A bit frustrating that it was only on my third try that I found the right size. I wear a 6.5 wide in the New Balance 1080 but in this shoe I needed a 6 extra wide. It's a shame that the fit isn't more consistent within a brand.

This is a really disappointing shoe. It's not wide as marked even though it had a tag on it that even said Wide. The toe box is very narrow. Also the tongue in these shoes has weird elastic attachments to the bottom of the shoe, which felt OK but I could see that becoming a problem for some people. Also it feels like it should have excellent arch support but there was absolutely nothing there.

Narrow in the toe box. I have other New Balance sneakers and the WW is wider on those.

Very tight and shirt for being my normal NB size. Toe bed is very narrow for being an extra wide shoe. The sport seemed good and style cute but sizing ruined it.

I liked how these looked and how lightweight they were. However, they were Not as wide as a new balance wide usually is. I had to return them.

I absouletly LOVE these! I have arthiritis and back , hip, knee problems and I also have a hard time finding comfortable shoes for walking. I have a high arch and these are supportive .After wearing my feet feel better , Iv never had shoes like these.

felt too small and narrow. Nice looking shoe. wish it had fit.

I guess I was wrong! I thought I ordered 8.5, some shoes I wear a size 8, I wore them around the house but my toes felt cramped, I will exchange for a 8.5

I normally wear a 7 wide in New Balance. This pair did not fit because the toe height was so low. I wasn't thrilled enough with the overall feeling to try a larger size. I ended up getting the FuelCell Propel v4 in 7.5 wide.

New Balance shoes are beginning to be very hit or miss for me. I wear a 2E and continue to find that these shoes are simply not wide enough. Even with very thin socks, these were simply too tight. They also feel at least a half size too small (I always purchase these a half size bigger than casual or dress shoes). Also, the toe box is very shallow, so my big toe was poking the fabric - that would no doubt weary very quickly. Positives - these did feel good underneath my foot; they felt very supportive. I was sorry these did not work out.

I wear size 9.5 WW in New Balance and have always been very comfortable in NB shoes. This one was very narrow, though. I tried on the WW and it did not feel like NB sneakers usually do. The toe box is narrow and squeezes my foot.

The fit felt true to size, but the sole was hard an uncomfortable.

Really like the look of the shoe. I read all the reviews and decided to order the wide even though I don’t have a wide foot, but the toe box was still way to tight and made my toes squeeze to point of overlapping

I ONLY wear New Balance sneakers because they are sipportive and soooo comfortable. This pair was very uncomfortable because there was no ventilation.

This is an ongoing problem with New Balance now a days, the size and width are running so small I can’t order anything online any more. I wear a size 8 EE and have been buying New Balance for over 40 years. Every style I’ve tried is not close to fitting like it used to. The only problem I have is that most stores don’t carry any women’s sneakers in a EE so I have to order online. This is the fourth pair I’ve ordered- from various places- and all of them don’t fit!!!

I love New Balance and this pair is no different. I thought it ran a bit smaller than usual, but not a problem overall. I also use an insert but I do on ALL shoes I wear. I recommend them.

The most comfortable sneakers my 92 year old mom has ever worn!

Very stylish and foamy comfortable while being very supportive. Some folks say it runs narrow, which may be a bit true. It would be too narrow for a really wide foot in Medium width. Super QUALITY AND I SO RECOMMEND.

My grand loved them, just to small in width.

Comfortable and love the color. Wish I could afford to buy them (they are worth it), but things suddenly changed.

Great style!

Love this sneaker inside and out. Supportive and looks great.

Excellent fit and materials

Tongue of shoe said "9W" but I ordered 9 WW. shoes were squeezing my foot. Also, quality was less than I've come to expect from New Balance. Returning pair.

This felt narrower than the usual D width
