" I decided to give these New Balance a shot because I wanted something more retro than your average sneaker. Having never worn NB before, I went for it after reading the rave reviews saying how comfortable these were. I was disappointed on receiving these in the mail when I saw that the insole is actually very thin, and did not provide much cushioning at all. Being a teacher on my feet all day, I couldn't imagine these would feel good after a long day. The shoe also made my feet look longer (I wear a size 6). The suede wasn't dark black, but very brushed and worn-looking. I went back to the store to return them and tried them on again side-by-side with a pair of lace-up Sketchers with a memory foam insole. I went with those instead...much more comfortable and light weight! "
