The most comfortable shoe! Walked over 5 miles each day in these shoes for two weeks in Europe and had no complaints at the end of the day. Cute, stylish and was able to wear with everything. 10/10 recommend buying.

Fell Apart
I bought these shoes for my 20 year old daughter to wear for everyday walking. She’s a college student and needed them for walking to class. She didn’t run in them, or play sports in them, and they fell apart within 4 months. The bottom of the shoe separated from the shoe (she was able to glue them back together and continue to wear them), and then the support in the heal crumbled and they are now unwearable. I expect a pair of shoes worn for basic walking to last longer than 4 months. Very disappointing.

feminine pretty color but odd fit
I really would like a shoe that I can count on the sizing but this was a good guess. I went down a half size like others recommended and it’s close to a good fit. I normally need an 8 and got the 7 1/2 and it’s just a tad shorter than I normally wear. Nothing painful yet as I haven’t worn them out and only tried them on. The normal women’s size 8 was my tried and true bet but the new gender inclusive no longer fits like it used to for women’s sizing. The shoe is much wider than normal and it has to be laced very tight to almost buckle to get it right. The heel is wider as well and causes slippage. All in all it’s good for the price but I will have to find a new line to accommodate my needs best. The sizing has been trickier than expected.

not satisfied with the quality
Honestly, I'm very disappointed with my purchase. I expected a completely different quality from New Balance sneakers, especially given the price and the brand's reputation.
There are visible glue marks on the seams almost everywhere, and in some places they're quite rough. This makes the sneakers look cheap and doesn't at all convey the impression of high-quality, authentic footwear. If I hadn't known they were New Balance, I might have thought they were fake based on their appearance.
It's very disappointing to receive such a product from a brand that you expect meticulous craftsmanship and high quality. Unfortunately, I'm extremely dissatisfied with my purchase.

Perfect go-to sneakers
I am a size 6, and they fit perfectly! I love the colorway, as it goes with almost anything and it took no time at all to break in!

⭐ Comfortable, Stylish, and Worth It!
I absolutely love these New Balance 530s! They are extremely comfortable, lightweight, and provide great support for walking and everyday wear. I also love how versatile they are, they look great with jeans, leggings, or a casual outfit. The fit is comfortable and they’ve quickly become one of my favorite pairs of sneakers. Definitely a 5-star purchase!
