Always disappointed when NB changes their shoe style but this time it changed too much for me and for the first time in years I am not keeping one of their shoes.  This re-design seems to be more than the usual small tweaks and is really a different shoe, which does not work for me.  If you buy this thinking it is the 847 you liked, it is much lighter, not as sturdy feeling and for me, the shoe box was narrower and my toe was hitting the end. Same size I have worn in NB for years, but not in this shoe.  Very, very disappointed as now I have to search for a good walking shoe to replace my 847''s.
