New Balance Men's Composite Toe Quikshift Industrial Shoe

Best hard toe shoe I've ever worn. Feels almost exactly like a tennis shoe. Wide enough for my wide feet. I really, really like these shoes. Textured arch on the sole for extra bite on the most used area when balancing on an uneven surface. Fantastic shoe.

I walk on concrete all day long in an industrial environment in safety boots or shoes. Recently, I started to have some ankle, arch, and heel pain. My feet were killing me at the end of the day. It got to the point that I was experiencing significant pain. I tried some orthopedic inserts and that helped a lot. However, I still was not completely pain free. I was going to go to a podiatrist, but one of my co-workers told me I just needed some different footwear. I decided to change from a boot to a shoe. After looking at shoes at an orthopedic shoe place and being shocked at how expensive they were, I started looking at reviews online for orthopedic work shoes. These New Balance industrial safety shoes are highly rated for comfort. I wasn't too sure if they would be right for me as I have always worn boots, but I ordered them because they are way less expensive than any work shoe that has "ortho" in the name. When I got them, I replaced the standard insert with an orthopedic insert that has a heel cushion and arch support. I put them on and wore them around my house trying to decide if I wanted to wear them to work the next day. Frankly, they didn't seem all that comfortable, but I decided to wear them the next day. I walked all day without any pain at all. My feet felt the same at the end of the day as they did at the start of the day. When I was wearing boots, my feet would be killing me at the end of the day and I couldn't wait to get home home and take off my boots. With these New Balance shoes, my feet felt so good at the end of the day I didn't want to take off my shoes. These shoes are an absolute game changer. They are wonderful and so comfortable to walk in. I also really like the slip resistant sole. My boots were smooth on the bottom for walking inside. When I had to walk through a wet or snowy parking lot, or a wet or oily spill on the floor inside, I would slip and actually had a couple of falls. These shoes solve all of the problems I needed solved. The only question I have now is how well they will hold up. They are very well made and sturdy, so I don't see that as being an issue at all. These are seriously great shoes. If you are having any type of foot pain at work, buy these and get a good orthopedic insert. You will be amazed at how much better your feet and ankles will feel. They are worth every penny. I am very pleased and thankful to have these New Balance shoes.

I love the shoe and its very comfortable. I wear a sz 15 3x wide and its a great fit. Very durable on the sole of the shoe. Doesn't wear out as quickly as the Timberland Pro boots. They are MUCH lighter than the timberland.

I was tired of wearing running shoes, there is oil,water,and etc all around my job, i keep tripping over my feet, because the oil or water gets moved around the floor with help of the many feet. The muscles in my legs were getting bad and my back hurt. After a week, i notice the change in my legs's muscles and back,and not tripping over my feet anymore. My legs don't feel tired and my back feels so much better. They slightly heavy but that helps. The sole is thick, i don't feel the hard floor,and my feet doesn't get hurt when i hit against the hard plastic. My leg muscles feel stronger. They are $100, but they are worth it, when daily walking on hard floors for 40+++hours and at 7 days. I wear 81/2 in womens but 7 in mens, i put shoes insole, that also help. Easy to clean,has a some arch support but still better to add, cause arches in every one is different. I'm also less tired, my feet doesn't hurt, nor my legs, nor my back i wear them every day for work. I have also notice, process techs also wear these shoes but in steal toe. Mine are not, the enforced toe area keep my toes safe. Doesn't matter of the style, as long your feet, legs and back and body doesn't feel tired because of the hard floor i recommend these shoes. They function excellent, style is just fine

Worn them for about 6 months in auto shop and they are very comfortable, lightweight and are still holding up well. I do use heel gels.

6e width nice. Looks great. Fore foot cushioning is acceptable but for whatever reason the heel on this thing feels like felt over cement. Breaking these in has crippled me this week, standing for 8 hours. even with the best heel insole I could find, I shuffle home and lay down for 12 hours

These are my new favorite shoes. I bought them to protect my toes while mowing lawns but I wear them everyday now. Comfy and effective. And not bad looking.

Great shoes. Perfect for wide feet!
