Considering the size options it fit true to NB size. I've owned many NB over 40 years and these are size-true. Not athletic shoes. Pure fashion and fun. Think Missy Elliot and Run D days.

A bit tight at toes may have needed wide.

These are dope. They are flat as skater shoes should be, but New Balance really upped the construction with a snug fit. It’s like gloves for your feet.

Great shoes. They run a little long and a little narrow, which is why I got 11 instead of my usual Nike or Asics size of 10.5. They fit great, but I do wish they were a little shorter. Still a solid 8/10 shoe - the color is really great.

NBs are typically wider than most shoes. These are narrow even compared to most other brands. If you have wide feet try a full size up

Using these for sk8 boarding and the feeling of the deck under your feet is not really good!
Also the shoes wear out very quickly! One session and they were already add signs of wear
The only 2 good points are that they look great and they are confortable for walking!
Went back to my vans pro for sk8 boarding!

Its a really nice looking shoe, but it was too narrow. Also, I know this is the fashion now, but the tongue has that unfinished hem look. I'm not a fan of it personally, and the photos don't really show this.

Way too narrow. Returned them. Don't buy unless you have a very narrow foot.

Look at the photos closely and look at the tongue. There is exposed foam, not sure why this is part of any design. Kind of a deal breaker for me. Packed them back up and returned them as soon as I took it out of the box. Bummed because I love New Balance's skating shoes now, but now am on the lookout for similar designs.

It could be a manufacturing defect but the rubber sole around the toe after just 2 weeks is pulling away from the pleather upper. The pleather upper is also wearing really quickly. Especially in comparison to similar shoes from other brands. Again, this could just be a manufacturing defect but nonetheless disappointing.

I simply tried them on and was obvious they would hurt my feet so sent them back but now I think I should have ordered a full size bigger. I have been 9.5 for a long time (except Nike which runs small). I may well be sending them back to get a 10.5

I have always been the same size in New Balance. I’ve been wearing NB for 20 years. These shoes were easily 2 centimeters longer than a nearly identical shoe CT288, which is no longer made. BRING BACK CT288!
I held both these new shoes and my old shoes (same size) next to each other and measured from heel to toe.
Also, this unisex stuff doesn’t work. Men and women are different.

Unlike lots of the NB Numeric shoes, they fit true to size and are hands down my favorite shoes currently to skate in. Similar to a Busenitz but with more support, cushioning and a tongue that stays in place

It's a gift
After placing my order, I called customer service within 5 min to change the shoe size. The girl at the end, told me sorry we can't modify your order. You have to wait until you receive the shoe, then return it to be refunded. It will take 10 business days to get your money back. Once the money is on your card you can reorder if you still want the shoe. I was shocked.
