Here is a pic of the New Balance 255 size 14 along with the same sized Emerica Low-vulc (Reynolds) and the Emerica Figgy Dose. Heel of each shoe is aligned perfectly on tape.

I freaking LOVE these shoes! Not only are they NOT Nike, but they skate better, wear better, and Iook better than most anything else out there since all the REAL skate shoes companies got run out of business. Added bonus: I like these better for crossfit (except for rope climbs) than any Metcons or Nanos that I've tried.
I'd also recommend:
Airwalk, Adio, DVS, Fallen, Globe, Etnies

Got these in Sky/White. They look great and are super comfortable. This is my third pair of NB’s. Solid choice.

For the longest time Ihad been wearing skate shoes made be “macbeths”. Unfortunately theyno longer producing the shoe style of my liking. So had to embark onthe search for a new brand model. And this was the one. If you are ordering this one order half size larger. The looks are cool. I just hope the sole don’t start coming apart like vans do. (I’ll keep updating my review as I go) They are comfortable as they can be I mean, come on! They are skate shoes. They look good, they feel good, a bit heavy but nothing that that lessens their looks and feel. The only thing is that at first a felt something that was bothering me for the first 5 time i wore them but then it went away. Over all give them a shot!

I had the 254s when I first started with New Balance and they were a very strong forgiving shoe. All the issues the 254s had have been fixed with a better outsole and better stiching that makes the 255s not bag or sag. Getting another pair once these are done.

I read the previous reviews that mentioned they run small and ordered up a full size rather than 1/2 a size and that was a good thing. They’re cool to look at but not especially comfortable. I’ll keep them anyway but I wasn’t impressed

I have 4 pairs of these, honestly these are the best shoes I have ever skated in, and I have been skating since 1989..yeah i am old but I know what I am talking about. I have skated every brand you can tjink of thru the years. These are the best plus they look super good. Just watch Jordan Taylor in the String Theory video. Very stylish.

These shoes fit well and I will wear them around the office. But I will probably not wear them for long walks or extended periods of time.

I liked the shoe, but I needed it wider. The shoe was to narrow for my foot. If a wider size was available It would have been perfect.

This model felt full size smaller! My real size is 8.5 but these sneakers I took a 9.5 and they fit perfectly. The Brown/Red color looks great and expensive.

Best skate shoe for 12.5 and 13.5 non-narrow feet. After searching for a year, these are the ones. Size up, win. Is NewBalance phasing these out? Bought a bunch of pairs just in case. Loving the padded collar and slimmer silhouette, unlike the old school fatter style. Good grip and flick.
I'd also recommend:
Lakai, Emerica, Es, Globe, DC, Etnies, Supra

My actual size is 8.5. These took 9, and they're tight! This model is full size smaller. Otherwise, everything is OK, they look great.
