Official New Balance Thread *sizing info for different models on first page*

As far as I can tell, yes.

In regards to pricing, even with shipping I realized that some of the pairs end up costing around $200+ shipped. I know we are used to copping under retail but most of these pairs cost that much for retail anyway. I remember the 997PR being $260 and I still regret never picking up a pair. Those first run of 997 reissue GRs were amazing when you consider shape, quality control and colorways.

Wow I'm embarrassed that I apparently couldn't spell last night... also a shame that these pairs are so expensive to ship to the US. Looks like it's a shop in Switzerland? Guess they're not really into NB out there?

Apologies for sizing question.

Do 1500s fit like 997s?

I have narrow feet and prefer a snug fit.

Here's how i size for NBs:

US 8.5 in Flyknit Racers and Padded Trainers
US 8 in Flyknit Trainers (unpadded)
US 8 in NB 1500
US 7.5 in NB 998

997s fit inconsistently for me. I'm 7.5 in JCrew butterscotch, Concepts Rose/NYC/Lux Goods, JOL, but 8 in other older GRs
Don't own a 574 unfortunately so i can't comment

I haven't gotten my 574s yet, but I went with an 11, the size I wear in pretty much everything. I got NB1, the 998BESP and a pair of 997 in 10.5. I should've gotten an 11 though because I wore the "Premier" 998 that I got in an 11 and they felt so great on foot, a lot nicer than the 10.5 for myself personally. My left foot is slightly bigger than my right, which I was not aware of when I was usually trying shoes on my right foot.

Thanks, guys! I chatted with an NB rep, and they informed me that the NB1 998 fits TTS. They didn't know about the fit of the NB1 574s though.

I have two pairs of the Wheat Trailbusters (I LOVE those!), and those definitely fit TTS. However, ever since I received the Kennedy 999s, I'm really unsure about sizing :/

Me personally, when I'm in doubt I usually go the side of larger to be safe. I don't like too tight of a fit either and want my feet to have some wiggle room, but not be sloppy. Try to find a Nordstrom or Burlington or something like that near by to see what shoes they got you can get a reference for sizing.
 
The Hyannis fit huge IMO. I went with my nike size and was debating about going a half size down for the NB sizing but stayed with nike size and i have a good amount of extra room. Prefer more room than tight obviously. Can always wear thick socks, cant make my feet smaller.

I wear a 12 in nike and usually an 11.5 in NB. I think I could have fit an 11 easily for the hyannis pairs
 
I find made in USA new balance shoes run half a size big. Most people agree.
I wear 9.5 in most nikes, but I wear 9 in made in USA new balance

Sometimes I get more (if not equally) excited nabbing a non-hyped (and under retail) pair, as I do some of the more hyped pairs. This 770FA is one of them. Glad to finally have this one.

Definitively ! Grabbing GRs (or just non-hyped pairs) you like under retail is the best !
Your pics make this 770FA looking sweet ! I was really pleased with 770CF, i would maybe cop those for a good price.

Last week, i received another 1500SP, so now i can let my first pair beat the ground more often :smokin
