I have made a serious effort in the gym for over a year now, primarily weight training and plyometrics with some use of the cardio machines. I have been using the WX997s for about 3 weeks now, and I have really enjoyed them! They took less than a week to break in, and they are true to size. It is a more narrow shoe than I am used to (I had Pumas before these), but I find the extra snug-ness helps when doing plyos. I saw these shoes in Muscle & Fitness Hers magazine and instantly loved the style & shape of these shoes. These were a great purchase!

I use these shoes for fitness walking, mostly. They're very comfortable, true to size, and look good too!

Like the shoes...have a hard time finding my size...who knew 8 1/2 W was odd? New Balance never fails!

Great at first - initially the most comfortable shoes ever. But a month later, the plastic along the heel has worn through the fabric and tears up my foot. I tried a second pair, but the same thing happened. Major design flaw!

These are my new indoor workout shoes. I use them for strength class and cardio circuit. I like the lateral support, light weight, and roomy toe box. They are kind of minimal, which I like. Yet the basic support and cushion is there. I also think they look good. I like the color. Thanks for getting them to me so quick!

These shoes provide excellent stability and are very comfortable for walking as well as working out. I went through 3 new pairs of shoes til I found these and am very satisfied. Sent my mom a pair too; she called me up and raved about them. She has knee and hip pain, she said she walked to her neighbor's house down the street and back, no pain!

These are one of the stylish workout sneakers and not bright and colorful like most. They are very comfortable and good width. They are also breathable, sometimes i can feel air passing thru them.

Use this for walking mostly and working out. It was comfortable from the first day, no breaking in required.

Usually love New Balance but in spite of these being a wide, they pinched my toes and were much longer than a normal size six. Shouldn't have to "break in" a non-leather tennis shoe!
