Awesome colors on this shoe. Also appears to be well made but....these fit very small. I wear 7 1/2 and ordered that size. I could not get my feet in comfortably. Also, the shoes have a very narrow toe bed. Even in a larger size I question the width factor. I do not like my toes to be squished up. I love love love the colors though. Hopefully the company is reading this feedback. Tweak a couple things and I'll be a customer!!!!

This shoe is super cute! I love the classic New Balance shoes though! I usually wear and 8.5 to a 9 but have to go up to a 9.5 in NB shoes usually. Love the neutral gray with the small pop of pink! It’s definitely more narrow and runs small so just order a size up and you’re good!

Though I wear a D and have had not problem with other New Balance 996s, this one was much too narrow; also felt shallow, as if the front end was too squished between top and sole.

I normally wear a 7.5 or 8 and the 7.5 fits perfectly. Only wide was available but I bought them anyway and they feel normal, not wide. They are very comfortable and cute!

Bought these after purchasing 574. Way better looking with leggings and skinny jeans. Super comfortable. I'm 1/2 size bigger in new balance than any other sneaker.

These shoes are stylish and well-made. The fit is a little snug, but not enough to be an issue. Very comfy to walk and run in.

Have to return because these run narrower and smaller than other new balance shoes I have gotten

Pretty and seems to be well constructed, but did not fit my wide toe box.

Size up at least a half size, and skip altogether if you have wide feet.

The fit was pretty good but, unlike other NB shoes I've had, these did not feel like there was any cushioning or support, just a hard bottom. I knew they would be impossible to wear on hard surfaces so returned them.
