 Excellent shoe May 16, 2010
H. Venugopalan Nair Rad (New Haven, CT, USA)
I was looking for a good sports shoe with proper ankle-support to help me cruise both cityscapes and party with ease. This is perfect for that. Light. Great ankle support. Excellent quality. No issues. Have been using this for 3-4 months. Very comfortable.

Most comfortable shoe for the price July 13, 2010

Look, I've worn every brand. I've played college basketball and volleyball, and lived through shin splits, tendonitus, ACL replacement, and a few years of plantar fasciatus. Very painful. I finally settled on New Balance about 10 years ago. They've been making basketball shoes that long! And here we are in the 800 and 900 series. They are the most comfortable shoes I've ever worn, hands down. I also wear arch supports. No more fasciatus. And the 889's and 904's are super light as well! Now, do they match up against Kobe's? Or LeBron's? or even Team Addidas? I wouldn't know. I haven't spent over $75 on basketball shoes in over ten years!! If you care about comfort, get 'em. I'm on my fourth pair in two years. Love em!

Once these shoes are on, they are THE BEST I've worn so far during this time of my life.
I've gained weight, had two knee replacements, and developed really weak ankles.
These shoes (and some custom orthotic inserts) give me such great stability and comfort in my ankles and feet, that my knees are no longer torqued and strained and fatigued so quickly.
These shoes have allowed me to get over a "hump" in my rehab from surgeries, and I think they should be standard V.A. issue shoes for knee rehab patients, especially those with diabetes.
The toe cavity is plenty big here, so if you are worried about that, don't.
Get a pair of the white too. The black ones shine up really nice, and if you take a marker and blacken the gray "N", you can wear them with casual slacks and few people if any will notice you have tennies on.
Also, my religious services are historically long--1-1/2 to 2 hours long and you stand a LOT. Though it is traditional at my church to remove your shoes, I wear these during services with my priest's blessing, and they allow me to remain focused and pain free for the entire service.
The only bad mark is that they are difficult to lace at first (different style of "eyelets", but if you take your time you will eventually learn how to put them on and take them off with minimal effort.
