It depends on the model. New Balance fit varies between styles, so a single verdict for the whole brand would be misleading, and we only publish a fit verdict where we have measured one. The dependable way to answer it for the pair you are buying is to work from a shoe you already own and know fits: enter it above and we will tell you which New Balance size matches it.
Start from a shoe you already own that fits, rather than from your usual number. Enter it above and we will convert through foot length to the matching New Balance size, which is the part that carries across brands. The EU to US offset is not the same for every brand, so a rule of thumb learned elsewhere will not hold here.
Not directly, because a size label means whatever the brand decides it means. A Nike 42 and an Adidas 42 are cut for different foot lengths, and so is a New Balance 42. Foot length is the common unit, which is why our comparison works from the measurements behind each brands chart rather than from the number printed on the box.

New Balance is an American sportswear company founded in 1906, known for high-quality running shoes and lifestyle sneakers. Unlike most competitors, New Balance manufactures some models in the USA and UK. The brand is celebrated for offering wide width options and exceptional comfort across its range.

New Balance shoes generally fit true to size with a generous, comfortable fit. The brand is known for accommodating wider feet better than most athletic brands. Running models like the 990 and 1080 have ample room, while lifestyle models like the 550 and 574 fit standard to slightly roomy.

For New Balance, order your normal shoe size. The brand offers most models in multiple widths (B=narrow, D=standard men/wide women, 2E=wide men, 4E=extra wide), so choose the right width rather than sizing up. Compared to Nike, New Balance tends to run slightly wider.
