What I like about this shoe is that it is non-slip and the fresh foam is comfortable. What I didn't like about this shoe is that it was a bit tight depending on the thickness of the socks. Not much bow support, which I hate. I have plantar fasciitis so after a few months I couldn't wear these shoes anymore. I take about 20,000 steps a day and you can really feel it in these shoes towards the end of the day. I usually wear 16 EE on Asics so 16W would be better. I've never been a big fan of New Balance but Asics stopped making gt/16ee/black shoes. I just went back to my old Asics and painted them black. Pros: Non-slip fresh foam is very comfortable. Cons: no high arch support, a little narrow at the toes.
