My job requires me to stand on concrete all day , i also have very bad feet to begin with , so i am not a "runner". I have relied on NEW BALANCE for many years now for my work shoe requirements (plus my orthodics). My recent order was for theNew Balance Men's MR749 Running Shoe,they were advertised as "high stability",which sounded like it would be even better for my feet.
Well! I could tell as soon as i laced the "749's" up that they will be the best NB shoe yet. I wore them this morning just for a little while, and they feel much better than my current NB 409"s (which are also new). The MR749 is a very good shoe !
I was also very pleased with the seller,Road Runner. They provided fast delivery(4 days),free shipping,a return label was included, and they followed up with a phone call to ensure delivery and satisfaction. THANKS AMAZON and ROAD RUNNER ! |
Fantastic Sneakers!

Do you know how hard it is to find shoes that fit comfy on my size 14 2E feet?! Ever since I heard about New Balance offering most of their shoes in wide options I've been a fan of them, and these sneakers do not falter New Balance's name!
What I like:
-They are light weight.
-They have great support, even for me someone as tall as I am (6'5").
-They have little holes on the front that allow air to pass through and keep your feet cool! I like this a lot.
-They are comfy.
-They are made in the USA.
What I dislike:
-Nothing worth mentioning!
Overall: Great pair of sneakers from a person who has a hard time finding a great pair of sneakers! |
Great shoes

I always have to rely on New Balance for the super wide sizes to accommodate my duck feet. :)
Thanks to the mesh design, you will have a very comfortable, cool and dry experience with these shoes, no matter what activity you partake with them. That being said, don't buy these shoes for cold weather, only logical right? Because of the mesh construction, these shoes are also very light, another bonus.
Great construction with quality throughout and thoughtful design, the only thing missing is a built in place to carry my keys. I use these for running/jogging/walking but think these would be great as an all around comfort sneaker to wear outside of exercise and training.
This model 749 is made in USA of imported materials. |
This a great all-around running sneaker.

| I've recently gotten more into cardiovascular workouts, mainly jogging and tennis. Although this is a shoe built to support running I find it very comfortable and supportive for both. I love the mesh outside which allows for my feet to breathe easier and stay much cooler during workouts. The bottoms have lots of bounce to them which I like too. These sneakers looks sheik without looking too overly loud and obnoxious like a large percentage of other track shoes. I highly recommend this shoe and I save alot of money buying this on Amazon rather than what they sold for at sporting stores at the mall. |

| The shoe delivers everything the specifications says it will. Very comfortable and gives me the support I was looking for as well as the color scheme I wanted. |
