New Balance size guide: how the 9060, 1906 and 204L fit

Indice dei contenuti

HOW NEW BALANCE FIT, MODEL BY MODEL
YOU FEEL THE RIGHT SIZE AT THE FIRST STEP

The New Balance 9060 has a regular fit: take your usual size, without going half a size down. The same goes for the 1906 and 204L at faraone.shop. In this New Balance size guide you'll find the EU, US, UK and centimetre conversion chart, the difference between unisex and women's sizing and how the most searched models fit.

How do you read New Balance sizes?

New Balance uses two scales: the unisex one, used for the 9060, 1906 and 204L, and the women's one for women's models. On the unisex scale every European size has two American sizes, one for men and one for women, which differ by 1.5.

EU 38 unisex: US men's 5.5, US women's 7;
EU 40 unisex: US men's 7, US women's 8.5;
EU 42 unisex: US men's 8.5, US women's 10.

On faraone.shop New Balance shoes are listed in EU sizes, as on the label inside the shoe.

How do you find the right New Balance size from your foot?

Measure your foot in centimetres from the heel to the tip of your longest toe, with your heel against a wall, and do it in the evening. Look for the row with the length that is equal or just above. Note that the two scales don't match: with 24.5 cm you wear a unisex 39.5 but a women's 38, so always check which scale the model you've chosen uses.

Chunky sole, noughties runner or low profile?

How New Balance fit, model by model

The volume of the shoe changes, not the number.

How do the New Balance 9060 fit?

The 9060 has a regular fit: take your usual size. The sole is chunky but the footbed is in line with the chart, and the mesh and suede upper follows the foot without squeezing.

How do the New Balance 1906 fit?

The 1906 is a noughties-style runner with a mesh upper and synthetic overlays. It has a regular fit: take your usual size. The soft upper adapts to your foot and doesn't call for a bigger size.

How do the New Balance 204L fit?

The 204L has a low profile and a slim silhouette. It has a regular fit: in your usual size the foot feels wrapped, as you'd expect from a slim shoe.

The right New Balance size comes from two checks: the model's scale, unisex or women's, and the centimetres of your foot. Every product page on faraone.shop also shows the model's Fit field.

On faraone.shop you'll find a selection of New Balance for women and men, from the 9060 to the 1906 and 204L, with fast shipping, free size exchanges and 30 days to return.

Heel in place, room at the toe

You feel the right size at the first step

In the right size the cushioning works the way it was designed to.

A New Balance in the right size leaves about one centimetre between your toes and the tip, holds the heel in place and lets the cushioning work the way it was designed to. A size too big creases the upper and lets the foot slide with every step.
