 very comfortable! July 28, 2010

I've had these shoes for about a year now, and before the 993 I had the 991. I keep coming back because of their great support and comfort. I use them for running and cardio dance/Jazzercise. The reason I didn't give these 5 stars is because they quite heavy.
Love These Shoes! April 26, 2010
E. Marler (Mobile,Al USA)
These are the most comfortable shoes ever. I'm not a runner, but I started a new job which required a LOT of walking. My feet hurt so bad I could hardly stand on them. I initially shied away from these because of the price ($149 after tax at my local "bargain" shoe store) and bought a cheaper pair of New Balance shoes. This helped with the pain in one foot but not the other. So I sucked it up and bought these. No more pain in my feet AT ALL! Have owned them for 6 months and wear them every day. My only complaint would be the mesh fabric in the toe area. If they would bring the leather part up a little bit over the toe, they'd be less likely to bust through. Just bought my second pair because the toe was ripped. But hey, I got them for $50 less than what I payed at my local Shoe Station! I also received them in 4 days.
Amazingly comfortable and sturdy! April 12, 2010

I have had these for quite some time and highly recommend them. They are extremely comfortable for running and are a very sturdy shoe - I have gotten so much use out of these and they are still holding strong.

I have been wearing New Balance for years on the recommendation of my podiatrist. Started with the 990 or 991 and have upgraded every year as they "new and improved" the sneaker. I have always found them to be a long lasting, nice fitting (room in the toe area) with some arch support sneaker.
THIS is the first time I have had to return a new balance due to size.
I am a straight up 6 1/2 and could barely get my foot into this sneaker. I have never had this happened with a New Balance. Two of the things I love about them is they don't squish my toes and I have always been able to order online without trying them on first.
Ultimatley I do recommend the sneaker however, if you are looking at this style, and can find it locally, try it on before ordering. Amazon usually has the best price but it stinks to have to return and then reorder especially if you have to pay postage each way...there goes the savings.
Super soft, at least in the store March 15, 2010

I tried these shoes on along with a whole spat of running sneakers. While I'd never fork over the $140 list price at my local store for a single pair of shoes, I must say that the heritage 993 is extremely soft and comfortable. The fabric or animal skin (not sure what it is) that lines the inside of the shoe is creamy to the touch, like suede.
The price is the only thing that kept me from yanking the sneakers from the shelf and purchasing them on the spot. If you look hard enough you can find similarly comfortable shoes in the $50 - $70 range, some with the same thickness of the sole. I found a pair that had gel cushioning from the brand spelled OASIS that seemed to match the quality of these at a lesser price - not quite perfect, but close.
Unfortunately I was not able to test the Heritage shoes during a run, but for the few hops I took to the mirror they minimized the impact like a dream. They will definitely remain on my wish list until they come down in price, or I save.
