Arch Support
Customers have mixed opinions on the arch support of New Balance Men's MW978 shoes, but generally positive. Some customers mentioned that they added custom insoles for better arch support while others found the shoe's stiff soles and removable insoles sufficient. A few customers with specific foot conditions like Diabetic Neuropathy and hammertoes reported significant relief from pain. However, a small group of customers noted discomfort due to tight toe fit or insoles coming out unexpectedly.
Wide Availability
Customers have mixed feelings about the wide availability of New Balance Men's MW978. While some are grateful for its availability in narrow widths, others struggle to find it in their preferred size and width at brick-and-mortar stores.
Durability
Customers have expressed mixed opinions regarding the durability of New Balance Men's MW978 shoes. While some customers have reported that their shoes are waterproof and have lasted for several years, others have experienced issues with stitching failure and sole separation within less than a year.
Highlights
Quality
Excellent traction sole (but see note below), good heavy leather, waterproof membrane, comfortable.
Wear the shoes several days a week and they feel good.
Bought new balance for over a decade, bought at least one pair of this model for years, lately multiple pairs a year.
I can never find this shoe in a 10 wide at a brick and mortar.
Price
Cheaper price then at the store and in stock.
Shipping
Amazon came through with the last two in stock!
Competitiveness
One of the few shoe manufacturers that sell narrow width which is very hard to find.
