Thank you to all of those that posted comments on my wish. It meant a lot to know that people cared enough to take time out of their day to help a complete stranger. My husband has a pair of shoes on the way and it will be a tremendous blessing to him as he works on his feet all day long. Thank you again everybody! WE really appreciate the support and help getting him these shoes! :-)

The style number for the worn out ones he has now are 506...at least that's what he told me.

Can you look under the tongue of the shoe and see if the shoes the New Balance style number is there? I think that number M540SR1 may just be Shoe Carnival's number as it doesn't come up at New Balance's web site or Zappos or Amazon.

You just have to copy and paste the link below in my last comment into your search browser to bring up the website showing the style and brand of shoes he likes.

This is one of the places that the NEW BALANCE brand of tennis / athletic shoes can be found. They are more spendy than walmart brand but they last for a long time and are extremely comfortable for him and since he works on his feet all day long, they would be well worth it. I would buy them for him if i could because he desperately needs them but i don't have any money which is why i'm asking for a hero's help. Thank you to all of those that have viewed my wish and for anyone considering helping us out. We really appreciate it!

Right now that main thing is comfort. He got a pair a while back from Walmart and they didn't give him the support or comfort that he needs. He works on his feet all day long and so he needs something that will benefit him throughout the day. He really likes the brand NEW BALANCE a lot and keeps wearing the same tore up pair from 3 years ago over the Walmart ones cause he said they are still more comfortable than anything he has ever used. Thank you for the comments :-)

I hope you find your heroes here. Does he just need a medium width? Maybe you can do a Walmart wishlist with the size and type you are looking for.
