As other posters mentioned, the shoe runs small. I have NEVER ordered a size 9 shoe, yet I had to return these and exchange them for a larger size, a hassle. I thought New Balance shoes were more uniformly sized, and that was my previous experience. So when I get a chance to wear the size 9's that I had to get in grey/pink, I will leave a better review as my toes hit the tops of these shoes and I had to exchange them!
