Customer Reviews New Balance Classics 247v2-USA

Cute and comfortable. The dark part was slightly more purple when I was expecting a brownish color. Sizing: The shoe ran slightly large. I’m typically a 6 (occasionally 6.5 in closed-toe shoes). I got the 6 and have a little room in the toe box, but not too much. It was a little tight to slip on the first time due to the one piece/no tongue construction, but has already loosened some with wear. These have a slightly higher profile (come up a little higher on the ankle) than some of my other NB tennis shoes. Not a deal breaker, just something to note. Overall I’m pleased with the shoe, but glad that I purchased while on sale.

Is a little hard to put them on

Loved the sneaker but it was very fitted, making it hard for me to even fit my feet in the shoe. I’ve never had this problem with New Balance shoes before. This shoe definitely runs more narrow than most of their shoes. As far as the actual size - once I got my foot inside it fit true to size. Returning because it was too much trouble and not comfortable.

I love the look of this shoe however it is very challenging to put on. The opening is far too small and cannot be stretched no matter how much you loosen up the laces. Once the shoe is on it feels extremely tight along the top and ankle although the length and width were fine. Sadly returning.
