New Balance
Runs LargeNew Balance is one of the few major athletic brands that consistently runs large, with a notably wide toe box. Most runners and lifestyle silhouettes wear half a size down from your usual, and the brand's true claim to fame is genuine width options including 2E, 4E, and women's D widths. If you have wider feet or high volume, New Balance is one of the most accommodating mainstream choices. The 990, 9060, and 327 all follow the same size-down guidance.
