Good looking well-made shoes (the stitching is clean and no traces of glue), Love them. Had some issues with heel slippage in the beginning but solved the problem by tightening the laces (I hope New Balance fixes this issue with this model). Shoes are also not so breathable kinda feel warm in the summer.

Finally got a pair of these highly coveted sneakers. Shocked & thrilled I found them on ASOS. Super slick sneaker .. If you can get your hands on a pair. Tons of colorways that honestly can go with a bunch of different looks. Sizing is a bit of a challenge. IMO they run a half size large. Very comfy and definitely have a overall retro vibe & look to em’ Highly recommend.

Decent traction for court play. Shoe length is OK. Upper material is super stiff; it took several hours of use to break in. Not like modern mesh materials. Toe box is much narrower than normal sport shoes. If you’re on the border between standard and wide, this is one style to definitely get the wide size if available.
from all the ruckus online abt these shoes I thought they were gonna be the best sneakers i set my eyes on but theyre pretty mid. they look kinda ugly from the top. Also idk if its maybe because I just have small feet (eu 39??) but they looked really small, felt small too. Anyhow might just be a personal preference lol.
I like the shoes, but Idk what HIBBETT was thinking. The Ups box arrived in perfect condition however upon opening the box I was welcomed with one completely destroyed box and another that was in rough shape itself. I purchased the white and Orange and the white and black and BOTH pairs had the liner/box paper all sorts of ripped up and both had the ortholite tags missing. I keep all of my tags and store all of my shoes in their boxes and I essentially can’t do this for these pairs. Why were these sent out in such condition? These are in the condition of the stuff you find on the sale racks. Super disappointed and probably sending back.
I bought these for my husband. The New Balance sneakers are very well made. My husband liked the canvas sneakers and said they were comfortable.
Only worn them once really! Usually a size 7.5 and these fit in that size, if a little narrow towards the front, but not uncomfortable, probably just need to wear them in some more. I would not necessarily suggest sizing up as the length is fine. Really like how they look. Bit early but so far so good I guess, happy with the purchase!
Construction quality is solid and material quality is definitely above average but I wouldn't call it amazing. Overall a great looking retro that meets the standards of the current trend of aged/retro sneakers for every day use. I have slightly wider feet so you can see the leather bowing/pushing out a bit on the medial and lateral sides of the upper since the outsole and insole are a bit more narrow. It's nothing too crazy, just take note if you have wider feet - they will look different than in hand or on a shelf.
1st thing that is very noticeable is the comfort cushion inside the shoes...2nd I would size up a half size for added comfort. It wasn't extremely tight but the 1/2 size up made a noticeable difference. Last it's very stylish, since baggy is back in these go great with your stylish jeans and comfort top. 10 out 10 would recommend:)
