883 has been an excellent shoe for me. Was skeptical about lack of stability as I am a true clydesdale at 6'9" and 300 lbs but they have worked out extremely well. Have run 40+ miles in them so far and they have showed little tread wear. I also have a high arch which may not be a good fit for the 883 but my custom orthotics provide me with the arch support I need and the 883 provides plenty of room for the orthotic to fit properly. The 883's feel like pillows on my feet and the SL-2 last is perfect for my foot shape. Used the on-line "ask an expert" to provide this shoe recomendation and they nailed it!
Thank you New Balance and keep up the excellent service.

The wide toe box easied numbness I was having in my toes. It\'s been a comfortable shoe for 12 5ks, 2 10ks and 1 1/2. I have arthritis in my spine making heel shock protection important to me.
