I bought these shoes to be sturdy and durable for my high intensity plyometics and cross training at the gym. They were not good. When I did a burpee, the sole completely bent and my toes bent back. Bad news for people who do push ups.

Cursed with wide feet and bunions, it's very difficult to find a good, comfortable work out shoe. I do Zumba and Body Pump and needed a shoe that could accommodate both flexibility and arch support for lateral movement and these work great. Also have a very comfy insole. Best shoe ever!

Great gym shoe! I was tired of forcing my running shoes to be all-purpose workout shoes, so I did some research on cross-trainers. Since I love New Balance (the 890 is my go-to running shoe) I bought the 813 in the black/blue combo. Initially I bought a 6.5 since that is the size of my New Balance 890's, but they were too short. The toe box is not as long in these as regular running shoes, so you may need to go up a half size. Width is average, and there is little to moderate arch support. This are not motion-control/stability shoes so if you over-pronate you might want to look elsewhere! This shoe supports me much better in aerobic classes, on cardio machines, and while weight lifting. With my NB 890s I will stick to road running, with these 813s I will hit the gym!

I bought these to replace the previous New Balance cross trainers I wore when doing low impact versions of exercise DVDs at home (P90X, Insanity, TurboFire, etc.) because recent weight loss also included the size of my feet. These shoes are very cheerful, comfy, and very cushioned (mostly in the toe but also throughout) for the price point. I plan to "Sweat It Out" with them as much as possible. Once again, nicely done New Balance. And thank you, Zappos!

Very comfortable tennis shoes. These aren't shoes for trail running. These are excellent shoes for the gym or for running around town. The inside is very comfortable and supports my foot. They are also very cute!

Very soft, comfortable shoe. It may help, a little, on eliptical machine where I spend about 40 minutes. My hips were aching and I think they feel better but the padding on the bottom can make my toes fall asleep if I don't wiggle them a little.

Love these shoes. :) They're very cushy and comfortable. I do Zumba workouts in them and they were great. And I get tons of compliments for my Spiderman shoes. :) Just so you know, the color isn't extremely red as in the picture, in certain light it can look kind of deep magenta.

Very comfortable, lightweight shoe. Fit true to size but did seem narrower than standard. Works great in my TaeBo classes. I also love the colors!

Very stylish and nice looking on my wrist. I am a nurse and the watch is easy to read and use for my job. The watch band isnt real comfortable, though. Moisture gets underneath it easily.
