Size them like your other athletic shoes. I wear 12s across the board. I do have a pair of AM90s in 11.5 and they're basically unwearable.

Omg. I want that jersey!!!!!

If these don't work for you, let me know your size and I have a buddy at Champs that can probably track them down.

Oh, I know and as someone who has dropped a boatload of coin to be what is socially accepted as educated I can't deny the fact that I could be allocating my funds in a way that was more conducive to the betterment of the industry. (labour laws and standards and blah, blah, blah.) However, I also can't deny how heavily influenced my youth was by hip hop and basketball, and as such, I still find myself biting the Nike bullet. Don't get me wrong, my made in USA 998 NBs are the most comfortable pair of sneakers I own. It's just a shame there's a lot of hype surrounding the brand these days which has made it close to impossible to snag the models I consider to be the most aesthetically pleasing to the eye.

I am in the same boat as shoreman, I love my nike and jordans and I have one made in UK NewB, which I do not wear. the shoe is great for sure, I love especially the sole. anyway a great comfortable shoe with a great heritage.
per Wikipedia NewB relocated 75% of the made in US production to China and Vietnam (ghostshift) per a research of fortune magazine in 2006 (see foot note 9) -
That's why I don't buy Made in the USA New Balances. I only buy Made in the UK. I've seen several videos of the plant where my sneakers are made, this cannot be said about Nikes being made in Asia. My mom is Korean and she is a retired factory worker and I've seen how they treated her, and this is in America.

I was under the impression that Nike was particularly stringent about factory conditions in its supply chain these days, owing to a great deal of campaigner pressure in the past. When these companies are watched, they tend to behave a lot better than the Chinese factories producing generic goods, which I suspect are truly horrible.
Agree though that Made in England New Balance cannot be beaten. I love my 576.
