I love these shoes! They’re really cute, and I hiked in them the weekend I received them. Sizing is off though: I typically wear 9.5, but I purchased a 10 and had to return them for a 10.5.

I am a true size 11 and have many pairs of NB. This is the first pair that was too small. My toe hit the end. They are great looking just too small.

I wear a 9.5 wide in most shoes. I always get that size for a little extra room. You could size up, I did get my normal size and have no issues. But I'm an in between (9 and 9.5) so it worked out for me. If you sometimes find your normal size shoe in different brands being on the verge of too small I would defiantly size up half a size.
Apart from that, they shoe is working great for me. Back surgery in 2020 and since having these shoe Ive been walking around doing over 12k steps and no leg/foot pain.

Perfect fit. Love the design and details of this shoe! Ordered my normal size 7 and it fits a bit snug but will be fine after a few wears. Love these shoes!

I loved the look of the shoe but it was very small. My big toe came to the very top of the shoe. Unfortunately I couldn’t get another pair in time for my trip so I had to return.

I ordered half size larger than I normally do since I wear heavy socks. They feel like they might be a smidge to long. I'm still breaking them in and hope I'll get used to them in time. The shoe strings come loose so I have to double knot them. I had to do this with my previous New Balance shoes as well.

Incredibly loose fit. 2 trail runs resulted in bruised toe nails and very sore feet. I needed a half size larger than my prior New Balance trail shoes. Just couldn’t get the right fit. Beautiful though

Felt true to size as I have found with new balance products. Very comfortable for all day wearing, stylish also. Your shopping policy is so easy, there is no reason not to return again and again!

I've purchased NB for the past 8 years, every year. The quality seems to be deteriorating. I love the colors and designs but the shoe just feels like cardboard now.

I usually have to size up in NB, but wish I hadn't with these. I got an 8 and should have gone with a 7.5. Even with thicker socks, they are a bit too big. Otherwise, good cute shoe for the trails!

They have almost no padding inside so my toes rubbed the fabric- otherwise they fit well

I go on trails every weekend. With rain and other conditions, the right shoes are critical. I also walk with 2 large dogs so I need my footing to be on point for all of our sake and safety. These shoes have made a real difference. I feel more secure in my steps and that makes the overall hike more fun!

Got my usual NB 8 wide and am having to stretch width a bit for bunion. Am 7 in regular shoes. Others here complain of adjusting ties as difficult. Yes, it is definitely a spatial I Q test! But once you get it done do you ever have to readjust? No. The shoestring design and the exotic sole shape make this a great looking and fun shoe. Could use more arch support but not high end for NB and a little lambs wool helps with the arches. Shoe is quite stable and good thick sole. I think my tannish ones will be great summer look with shorts and short skirts. Cheers!

I bought these shoes. They’re attractive, they fit well, even at the heel. The heel is usually too wide for my narrow foot. Comfortable and I think will be comfortable for walking.

I had to return my true size and get a half size up but I love them. They are my favorite shoes. You wouldn’t think it but Pink and yellow go with most things!

I take a 10.5 X-wide in Brooks Ghost. Based on the reviews here, I ordered an 11-wide. I was afraid the wide wouldn't be wide enough, but they are. Haven't worn them out yet, but feel very comfortable and love the Purple/Fushia color.
