HI Derek
I am still wearing my orthotics in them although I do have to wonder if I could get away without them. I don’t seem to have any issues with them in the shoe so I don’t think I will stop wearing them. They are a much lighter weight shoe than traditional running shoes so if anything you’ll at least appreciate that.

If you are working on strengthening your feet then I think at some point you will probably be able to get away without your orthotics in these shoes.

Hi Phaedra.

I’m interested to learn more about your transition from a stability shoe with an orthotic to these Newtons. Do you still wear the orthotics in them?

I’m trying to strengthen my feet, and slowly steer myself away from relying on bulky shoes and corrective orthotics or generic inserts.

The Newton’s tend to accomodate wider feet.

Hi Mary-Ann
As far as I know they don’t come in multiple widths, however the toe box is actually quite roomy. I have bunions on both feet and they fit well (granted my bunions aren’t terribly big but I do have them).

I also wear New Balance (1122’s not the 1123’s) for motion control / stability and because they come in a 2E width (especially for my left foot’s bunion) for my wider forefeet.
The shoes you describe sound great but do they come in width widths for women?
Thanks
