New BalanceMen's Composite Toe 589 V1 Industrial Shoe

Great shoes worth every penny

Super comfortable shoes

Great work shoe, great support, lightweight.

Muy bueno el calzado

I bought these shoes for the safety features. The composite toe and non-slip tread are great. My shoe size is 16AA. The narrowest width offered is probably a D, which is way too wide for me. I use orthotics in my shoes, but thought I'd try these shoes with the provided inserts first. Bad idea. My feet, ankles and legs were hurting pretty badly on day two after having walked about 12 miles in those two days. I had the weekend to recover, so I put the orthotics in before returning to work on Monday. The comfort has been much better since then, but my feet still slide side to side because the D width is just way too wide. I have a pair of Fresh Foam NB shoes which fit great because they're 16 Narrow. I don't use my orthotics in them because the shoes support my feet much better.The tread on these shoes is quite deep and small rocks get easily lodged in them. Clean out the rocks before walking on hardwood flooring so you don't damage the flooring.The toe box is very comfortable, even with my neuropathy.Because the tread is so thick, these almost feel like Herman Munster shoes. Pedal feel in my car is very vague compared to other, thinner soled shoes I wear.I average walking about 5.5 miles per day in my job. Though these shoes are much heavier than other shoes I own, the weight doesn't seem excessive.Because of my feet size, it's very difficult to find shoes that fit well. Sometimes I have to compromise fit for function. I do own a pair of Redwing boots which are size 15D, with a composite toe, and they're surprisingly comfortable. I use them for motorcycling.

Great product.

My son is a master mechanic at a reputable dealership. I saw him today and he bragged about how these shoes saved his toes. A Coworker of his did not hook the part on securely. So the part fell right on top of my son's foot. It did not hurt him one bit. He was in shock and grateful for these shoes! Thank you so much, for creating this shoe!!!

Decent shoes for the $. I normally wear a size 10.5 x-wide but ordered an 11 x-wide per another reviewers recommendation. The 11 was the way to go. If I ordered the 10.5, it probably would have been a tight fit.I wish the shoes had softer insoles. I have yet to find a work shoe or boot that is actually comfortable. Being work shoes you’d think they’d make the insoles extra cushy since they know you’ll be on your feet all day…. Unfortunately they don’t come close to being as comfortable as regular sneakers.
