I get a lot of crap for my New Balances, but they did 26km of meadow hiking and no problems on the feet. Thats a win in my book.

The wider width offerings is why I became a fan. NB and Skechers are two that seem to have a lot of options in 4 EE.

    I'm not allowed "cool shoes" because I require arch support. Both NB and Sketchers have specialized shoes that accommodate that, are comfortable, and reasonablely priced.

    But I really want them to provide some styles that have good arch support that doesn't radiate "old man orthopedics".

    It’s too bad because NB had a custom shoe designer page where you could build your own and it would be made in the USA.

    They were a little expensive but worth it if you had special requirements. I’m pretty sure Covid killed that though.
