Customer Reviews New Balance Fresh Foam X 1440

As someone with a wide foot it is hard to find shoes. I usually have to go up a half a size to compensate. This shoe in the wide fit, fit perfectly, and I didn’t have to go up a half a size. So happy with my purchase. Love the style as well!

Is like slipping into a sock on a cloud. I have wide flat feet and these are great!

They were too narrow. I chose a wide width and 1/2 size up, but they didn't have enough width in the forefoot. Also, the footbed felt oddly uncomfortable no matter what insoles I tried in them. I've been wearing wide NB running shoes for over a decade, so these were definitely a departure from their normal comfort. It's too bad, as they were really great looking. Hopefully NB will re-issue a similar looking shoe but with a fit that's more consistent to their others.

These seem to make me roll forward to the ball of my foot and there isn't much support there. They aren't the best for tailor bunion pre and post surgery.

NB - er for life. Very comfortable shoes - good support and lightweight. Definitely try another model though for better lateral stability (and design)

Tongue design is not good. Because it is attached to the sides of the shoe all the way up to the top of the laces, when you tighten the laces the tongue bunches up. This design also makes to more difficult to put the shoe on because the shoe can't open up very wide.

awsome shoes

My son has wide feet and was thrilled with how comfortable these were!

These are the most comfortable shoes I’ve bought in a long time. Good arch support, lots of cushion. I agree with others that I don’t love the tongue construction but quickly got over that once I started walking around in them.

Half inch too small

A tiny bit snug in length and width compared to others, but that works for me. Nice style. Plan on using these strictly for walking and casual wear.

Very comfortable. The foam is bouncier than I’m used to but these may be my new go to sneakers.

Great walking shoes if you have wide feet. Typically find regular Nike, Adidas etc to be a little narrow.

Good looking shoe. Would order 1/2-1 size up Could be wider for EE.

Very tight at the toes. Get a half size larger

Love the appearance of the shoes. For some reason, New Balance is starting to use a large piece of elastic in the tongue area which makes it uncomfortable for my high arch feet. Still not sure if I'll return or not, because of the tight fit from the WIDE elastic strip in the tongue area. Film at eleven!

the lace area is in place and that is the tightening allowed without puckering at the toe

Nice looking shoe, at least 1 size, , maybe 1.5 smaller than the size it is supposed to be, love NB

Insole has small cradle feel to it with not much of a cushion. There’s no tread at all on the bottom of this shoe.. It looked worn out

I ordered this and another New Balance shoe (same size, 10W) on the same order. This one felt at least a half size small. (The other felt a full size small.) I wear a Brooks 10W and that fit fine (also purchased on this order).

Smaller than any similar sized shoe I’ve ever owned before and definitely not wide fitting as the size I ordered. Terrible.

The fit was too small. The in person look was not as expeced.

Looked nice but all the support is in the heal. They lack support across the ball of the foot.

I did not like the fit as it felt the inside of each the heal ... made my foot camber out. Stange.

Shoe Construction made it difficult to put on.
