Customer Reviews New Balance Numeric 288 Sport

Look and feel good. Spacious and comfortable toe box.

Just not enough arch support for me and my orthotics make getting the shoe on and off more difficult. The shoe has a sock-like liner which comes all the way up to the top of the tongue, so it's snug getting on and off.

I can pull these on and wear them all day with everything.

I only hope they come out with more color combinations for this shoe. Fits any style for any night out or chilling in sweats during the day. Great all around shoe for most occasions.

Nice style and good quality construction / material. Runs 1/2 size small.

These are greatx. With its cushioned insole and padded collar, it provides exceptional support and impact absorption. I'm not a skater but for walking around, my feet feel great all day long. Would buy again.

These shoes are super comfortable and break in nicely. They breath well, and have a lot of comfort and room for a narrow foot or a normal wider foot. You’ll thank me later. Especially this colorway. Super clean and the black could almost go for being Navy paired with the red/cream and khaki. What can you not wear these with?! They some vibes & I wouldn’t lie to ya!

Honestly, these my favorite shoes I’ve ever had! I never liked cup soles but on this particular model it’s low profile enough that it doesn’t affect the board feel. That, coupled with the pointy and somewhat narrow toe box makes for a great skate shoe as far as my personal preference goes. I love the integrated tongue that’s built into the shoe, it keeps it straight and makes the shoe fit like a sock, and it just looks cool. As far as the feel goes they’re comfy as can be right out of the box, and the insole is cushy. I really wanted the grey/navy/lakers gold color way, but they were out of stock in my size. So after some serious contemplating I decided to get the white/baby blue. I was kinda bummed about this initially, however after wearing them I’m stoked I got stuck with the white ones. And it has opened my eyes as to why I’ve never worn white shoes before. Never had new balance before but they’ve become my new go to.
