All shoes are in American men's sizes. See chart below.
In General: If your feet seem "between" sizes and you cannot decide which size to select, we suggest you choose the larger size. You can make adjustments for a better fit with socks, insoles, or a different lacing pattern.
True to Fit? As a general rule of thumb, all turf or court shoes should be considered a true fit.
However, given less give in an umpire plate shoe, it is generally recommended to consider sizing up a half size. Generally, New Balance has more issues with shoe fit, Reebok less and 3n2 rarely. So consider the shoe and your feet when considering brands and sizes. Those with feet that are wider than a normal D width, should attempt to wear wider 2-E or 4-E shoes where available.
When you Get Your Shoes: Try them on at the end of the day when your feet are largest with socks you will wear with them. You should have enough room in the toe area to wiggle your toes. The ball of your foot should fit comfortable at the shoe's widest spot. Your heel should fit snug with no slipping.
Advanced Tips: If your feet are too small or slip out of your shoes, consider an extra pair socks, insoles, heel cups or another shoe or size. Have your feet measured every year as feet typically get bigger with age.
After you Wear Them: Look for any signs of foot cramping, numbness, blisters or calluses as this may be sign your shoes are too small or narrow.
Note for Women: We continue to encourage manufacturers to make smaller sizes. We apologize that we have fewer options for many of you.
