I have happily owned many pairs of New Balance, but these are the most uncomfortable tennis shoes I have ever worn. I normally wear a 6.5 in shoes, and these fit true to size. My main complaint is how high the top laces are on the sides of my feet. The inside of my ankles were sore after wearing these for one full day. I tried lacing them only to the next to the last set of holes, but the shoe still rubbed the inside of my ankles raw. The shoes also had extra padding toward the outside of my heel, making my feet roll inward. Since I have neutral pronation this was not comfortable and only exacerbated the rubbing of the top of the shoe on my ankles. Sadly I will be donating these to find another style that is more comfortable for me.
