I had to return the shoes, because even though they were wide, they were not wide enough.

Garbage. Unsafe & injury prone

Horrible. Perhaps the worst athletic shoe I’ve ever owned. Slippery to the point of being unsafe on wet surfaces and simply destroyed my Achilles. Rubbed it raw. Hired a personal injury firm if you buy these.

We’re sorry to hear that the toe box caused pain and felt too tight, even in the extra-wide fit. That’s not the comfort you should expect, especially when roominess is important. Please feel free to reach out to our Customer Care team so they can review this fit concern and help with next steps.
My forever shoe

Best lifestyle shoe I ever owned. I owned a pair of similar trail runners several years ago and donated them to a homeless person, and I struggled to find a replacement that I loved. Since finding the Tektrels, I now own 5 identical pairs in hopes I can stockpile these for the rest of my life. I never have sore feet, the shoes are self draining for water excursions, they hold up to wash/dry cycles, and the comfort/fashion are next level. They fit an active lifestyle in any case - running, rucking, working in the office, lounging, and performing water sports. I feel like these shoes have become my personality because of how satisfied I am with the design and longevity. Taking a fresh pair out of the box never gets old. The only issue I have is that my bunions wear through the mesh, but the embroidery pattern is strong enough that I can sew patches onto the shoes because they’re not worth scrapping over a small blowout.

Love the look but too narrow

It's a great looking shoe but it is way too narrow. I have other New Balance shoes the same size and width that fit perfectly. I can't even wear these because of how tight they are.

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that the fit felt much narrower than expected, especially compared to other New Balance shoes you own that fit well. Please feel free to reach out to our Customer Care team so they can review this fit concern and help with next steps.
Mediocre

They are ok I guess. My problems are that they seem like they are going to slip off all the time when I wear thinner socks which then causes it to rub constantly against the back of my ankle making it hurt. The quality seems to have gone down since the last time I purchased.

These trail shoes are very comfortable and light. They exceeded my expectations. I plan on buying a 2nd pair in the near future.

Width issue
Originally posted on New Balance US
Yes, I recommend this
Extra Wide is 2E. That’s not extra wide. Should have a 4E option.

I ordered 11 wide. If these were wide I hate to see what the regular size is. Very cheaply made too. I returned them.

I wear a woman’s 8, but have wide feet and purchased men’s size 7, W. I also think some of the men’s shoes have nicer color options. It’s a comfortable shoe for short runs. I tried wearing them all day and my right foot started hurting mid day. Like other reviewers mentioned, the tongue is not wide enough if you have a wider foot, and your socks will show. Thankfully I wear mostly black everything including socks.

Very comfortable shoe. Feels a bit different than other shies due to the lace anchors being so low. A bit difficult to slip on.

Sizing is different
Originally posted on New Balance US
I always buy 11 1/2 wide (2e) running shoes. The trail shoes seem to be cut a bit smaller
