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

Hello everyone, I'm new to the forums and fairly new to sneaker collecting as well (even though I write for a sneaker website). Been wanting to get my first pair of New Balances and really dig the following:

http://packershoes.com/products/new-balance-ml996dgy-distinct-authors?variant=1006320889

What's holding me back is the sizing. I usually wear US11 for Nikes and have wide (2E), flat feet. Should I stick to US11 for the NB 996 or should I size up?

All this custom 998 heat is making me sad why can't NB just roll this out Worldwide or maybe they could get some kind of custom options going at flimby 1500 or 577 would be great as it is i'm seriously contemplating a US proxy shipping company to cop a pair.

unfortunately a us proxy shipping company wont fix the problem... i have a 'suite' with shipito, nb.com has no problem with the address. BUT: it wont accept a non-US paypal account for payment, i guess same with cc... :frown: tried with my cc nonetheless, will see what happens. i was really looking forward to my 998 NB1, hopefully i'll find a way

will do mate! didn't encounter any problems before with my paypal account, even though some retailers explicitly preculded non-us customers (e.g. even epitome wasn't a problem). i'm located in germany btw.
 
Nevermind, after looking closer I got it. I just need white leather and navy blue suede options to do the perfect version of those...

Hey NT New Balance thread fam, HTB's can now be used with coupon code GOSHOPPING on Jcrew for $124 shipped! Just ordered mine, don't know how long this offer will last. Act quick!

Wow kind of pissed they honor it now. Would rather wait and save the 50ish bucks. But then again there was no guarantee they would be available at this point
