I'm a little confused-- I ordered a pair of 880 v 11 in January in 8.5 and they were fine. They still fit fine and a little loose in the toe box. I decided to replace them with a new pair of 880 v11, this time in garnet, and they're at least a half size too small. Same size, same model-- different fit?

I bought these for everyday use. Thank goodness I sized up half a size, because they would not fit if I didn't I have been wearing them roughly for a week now and the bottom rubber is starting to peel off already. They are way too expensive for that to be happening, so now I have to email them. Smh

These are very comfortable, but the sizing is off. I normally wear an 8.5. I buy a 9.5 in running shoes. The 9.5 was too small, so I bought a 10. The 10 is too small. My toe actually rubs against the end of the toe box. Unfortunately, I assumed, so I threw them on and went out for a run. Now I can't return them :(

I love these shoes but they wear out in the toe area. Additional reinforcement material in the big toe area would make these shoes more durable and longer lasting.

Overall, this is a great shoe, but my little square Fred Flintstone feet are still too wide for the toe box. I'm wearing them anyway, and pretty soon I will have holes in the mesh. I bought a wide, which has been sufficient in other versions of this shoe, but not for this version! They're cute, and I feel like I'm walking on springs (in a good way), so that part is good.

One shoe was a bit smaller than the other. I always order a size 9 and they fit perfectly. The right shoe on this purchase was about 1/4" smaller than the left. Maybe different manufacturer.

One of the drawbacks of ordering on linenot being able to try them on. They are just a little bit too cushioned/bouncy. Also hot! I'm thinking it's the foam, very insulating I wouldn't discourage anyone from buying, but try them on first. Style and color is nuce

I ordered these shoes because of the reviews about comfort, but I have to say I was disappointed. I bought these in a X-wide and I do have to say I love the way my feet slipped right in them. It felt as if I had broken them in, without actually breaking them in. I have wide feet and shoes usally fit tight on my feet. The padding in these shoes are not thick enough for Mr. I work 12 hour shifts and was expecting better support, but I had to buy inserts for them. The style actually looks better on than what the picture depicts.

The fit is as expected. I had hoped for the price that these shoes would offer extra cushioning. Alas, I am disappointed. Should have stuck with Hoka.

I really wanted to love these shoes. They look great! I like the traditional heel. However, they were so very small! I typically wear a size 10 1/2 or 11. I got these in size 11 and I think I need to go up to a 12. So very weird.

The fit was fine, but it seemed uncomfortable - maybe a bit stiff. I have 3 other pairs (black) of the same shoe, in same size that I love - this shoe felt different. Would have loved the gray, but not available.

I received these shoes on March 18 and in 3 months they are garbage. The sole is gone all comfort is gone. New balance has been my go to for years but I'm finding it increasingly frustrating that the shoes last 3 months or less especially for the cost.

They were way too tight in the toe box and my big toe on my right foot was touching the end of the toe box. Returned them.

I've had this shoe in another color and loved them. Great fit. Super comfortable. I recently purchased another pair and over the last two weeks I could not figure out why the right shoe squeaks. People can hear me coming from a mile away! I wondered if there was a hole in the cushion or something. I couldn't figure out why until I saw that the sole of the shoe was not attached along the back near the heel. These will be going back.

I bought this same shoe in a dk gray just a few months ago and these feel distinctly narrower. Mainly the right shoe which is my narrower foot. I have had a blister on my right pinky toe since I got these. Meanwhile I have mowed with my dark gray shoes. I buy this shoe to fit my orthotics, so I have to buy another $135 pair that fit? Nope, I will shop around.

This was the third pair of new balance shoes I bought in this fresh foam line. The other two fit perfectly but this pair was too small and I had to send it back even though all three pair were the same size, so I don't know what is going on.

I bought 2 pair of shoes with this order. The first pair fit perfect, no issues. But this pair of nice looking running shoes fell flat on sizing. I measure 6.5 so I did what I always do, go up a size. I ordered a size 7M. They had favorable reviews as far as fit. But for me they were too short and too narrow. Much to my regret I have returned them.

Snug but comfortable fit. I bought these to replace a pair I've had in another color that wore out, however I've worn these twice and the rubber on the soles is starting to shred. That's never happened before with any pair of sneakers and it's disturbing. I hope it doesn't continue.

I love the shoe but it's a size smaller than stated - I compared it to my old shoes. Sending it back and ordering a size bigger! Thank you to New Balance for return policy.

Weird - the 880 v11's in B width that I bought online from New Balance seemed very wide. But the label clearly says they are B's. So I tried on 880 v11's at a local store in B width, different color - and, they do not feel as wide - so I bought them and will probably just use the NB online purchase for heavy sock wear in the fall/early spring. Never had this issue before. I would normally give the V11 a 5 star rating and say they fit well, but for the purpose of this review, I must give them a failing grade.

The shoe fits fine but the 'foam insole' might as well be cardboard. As usual, I had to buy a separate insole for comfort.
