Stanton x10. They are a good fit. Also consider the j crew outlet version that cost less and are very soft with the same fit. I have red, grey, and tan.

Yeah, I like it a lot, but the Ludlow cut happens to fit me really well. It's a pretty consistent item so if you intend to get it I recommend waiting until the next 20% off sale (unless you need it sooner).

Thanks for your input, man. Just in case anyone cares (or searches the thread for New Balances in the future), I went TTS on the sneakers. They fit comfortably with a pair of regular socks, and a tiny bit loose without socks. I'm a 9.5D on Brannock, and went for the size 9.5. There's a lot of hate on NB, but they're oh-so-comfortable, and will be great if I ever find myself having to do a lot of walking. The suede is a subtle, but nice touch! A bit expensive, though, I will say that; student discount can't be applied, and it's unlikely that these will ever be discounted much, so buyers will most likely just have to eat them at full price.

The NB 574, which can be had for the $50-60 range is almost the same sneaker, IMO, though not made in the USA. I love mine. Super comfy for my flat feet. Great color choices as well.

I feel the J.Crew 1400s have a much nicer shape than Chinese made 574s.

574 always look too stubby and short for my taste. But purportedly the new US made Custom 574s are an improvement on that shape (may order a pair once they offer more colors).

Also, as to not throw things completely off topic, I can add that my experience with the 1400 sizing is about the same as jslade. I'd say they fit either TTS for sneakers or maybe a half size big. I wear a 12 Vans and these are more roomy (which is great for me since I have to wear my Vans kind of tight).

Are any of the small shirts you're trying to unload in slim fit?
