First time I have had problem with New Balance size that I always wear. Too short.

Love the style and color. My regular shoe size is 6.5. Normally I buy tennis shoes in a size 7. Got these in a 7.5 due to other reviews. The 7.5 fit but the arch felt way off. Sadly I had to return.
I'd also recommend:
Ryka, Asics

Well I love the shoe style and the speedy delivery but it was not a fit to true size. It was like a 1/2 size snug. But I won't complain.

I don't know, maybe something's wrong with me... but there wasn't adequate arch support, and I felt like there was a lump in the heel? I got a cramp just sitting down with them on. I'm used to converse --- but now I need an athletic shoe -- so it's possible that I'm just not used to the insoles of running shoes.

Even ordering a wide they still felt a little narrow. They were very comfortable for a trail shoe though.

These shoes would have been great if only they had been true to size. They ran a half size small and I wear a size 12 so there was no option for me to go up a half size. Otherwise, the shoes were lightweight, breathable, and a beautiful color. I would have loved to keep them, but they were just too short. So disappointing.

This shoe was slightly too small in the toes and perfect in the heel. I ordered a 1/2 size up and the shoes was too big. My foot felt like it was sliding around. I liked the style of the shoe but could not get a good fit.

I loved the look of these shoes!! However, the back of the shoe rubbed on my left heel/ankle. The toe box seemed short. I typically wear a 7.5 but bought these in a 8 and they still felt short. I have minor bunions on both feet as well as plantar fasciitis. I walked 2 or more miles daily so comfortable shoes are imperative. I am having SUCH a hard time finding comfortable shoes.

I had to return it. The toebox was flat enough that even though the length was right my toe touched the top. The collar around the ankle is very stiff. I guess the design is for heavy duty running and it was not what I was looking for. Hard to tell these things when you are shopping online. I used to wear an 8.5 wide fairly consistently in new balance. The sizing of the shoes is not consistent and for most styles now I need a size 9.

Feels comfortable for walking except the shoe feels like a 9.5, maybe a 10. My toes hurt by the end of the first day.

Sizing is off. I wear a size 8.5M in shoes and a size 9 is brands such as Asics. I needed a 9.5M for these to fit.
I'd also recommend:
Asics

I read other reviews of these shoes and everyone said to go up a half size. I had another pair of NB, though not the same model, and based the size off of those, getting a 10 where my old shoes were 9.5. I should have gone up a whole size because these are tight in the toe.

Disappointed in these New Balance Nitrel. They run small and the toe box is not as wide as they used to be. Bought a half size larger but should have ordered up a full size. Flimsy tongue bunches up when you lace them. Over-all cheap feel. The only thing I can say is good is that the heel fit is nice and supportive.

Disappointed. 2 days, 8 hour shifts, & my knees hurt. Lower back hurts. My legs shouldn’t hurt with brand new kicks. Too bad.

Received the shoes. Just as the pictures looks. Only problem is they were very narrow. I returned them back to New balance via UPS it said it was received on 5/9/22 and I have yet to get my money back! I've called and emailed and nothing. This is very poor customer service!!

Ordered these And I hated them. There was no support at all and my feet were hurting a lot by the end of the day. I will be returning them.

I usually wear a size 7. Ordered a size 7 because of the mixed reviews. Hurt my toes so bad, but couldn't return it. I recommend everyone to go up half a size or a full size up.

My toes were against the front of the shoe. I wear size 10.5 to 11 and it was a size 11. I could not wear them and returned them.

I’m on my feet all day, walking at work. By day 3 I had worst foot pain. I place insoles & that helped for a few days. I wish I had returned them. New Balance use to be my fave. Disappointed too many times.
