[Direct store] When I visit the store, the only way to get there is via a map, so I don't know where the nearest station is or whether there is a parking lot.


The map alone made it difficult to find the nearest station, and the directions were insufficient.

I bought an insole but I'm worried about cutting it. Please tell me how to do it.


New Balance insoles are functional insoles that support your everyday life and sports in a comfortable manner.
Please consider replacing your existing insoles with these for a more comfortable fit.
Here is an introduction to the insoles.
The insoles can be cut to fit multiple sizes.
First, remove the insole that comes with the shoe, match the heel with the separately sold insole, mark it with a ballpoint pen or something similar, and then cut it out.
When aligning your heels, if the included insole is cup-shaped, overlap it on the front, and if the included insole is flat, overlap it on the bottom of your opposite foot.
Please refer to this link for video instructions on how to adjust the size and cut the product.

How should I write a review? I want to make it as helpful as possible, so is there a good way to write it?


We have received many product reviews from many customers. Thank you very much.
We have guidelines, but we would be happy to hear your impressions after actually using the product.
When selecting products from the online store, please refer to the images, so there may be discrepancies in the actual color, texture, etc. If you can be honest with us, we hope that other customers will also find it helpful.
We also recommend comparing the size with your own size (My Size) to help you choose the right size.
for example···
・I usually wear size 24cm, but it looked slim, so I went up a size and it fit just right.
-I got a size L but it was an oversize so I went down to a size M.
We would be very grateful for any criteria you may have for selection.

Regarding import sizes, the size of the product I received was wrong. The invoice and tag say the order size is [L], but the collar of the product says [M]. Is this correct?


As stated in the size chart, our sizes vary by gender, import, and Japan. Sizes may also vary depending on the design, such as overfit.
For imported sizes, a pop-up Size & Fit Guide will be displayed on the page so you can use it as a reference for your size.
Please click here for more details.
[Explanation about tags]
For overseas model products with imported sizes, we create product tags (paper tags) based on the Japanese sizes. The sizes selected in our online store/outlet are also product tags (paper tags).
The collar and washing tags attached to the products (the location of the tags varies depending on the product) are labeled with the overseas size [M], and the JPN size is labeled separately as [JPN-L].
If you order [L], the collar and washing tag of the product itself will be marked as the import size [M].
We apologize for any confusion caused by the confusing size information, but please use this as a reference.

Therefore, after returning an item, the coupon cannot be reused for a new purchase.
In addition, if you purchase multiple items and then return some of the items, the coupon will not be applicable if the total amount of your order falls below the terms of use.

When I pick up my parcel at a convenience store, the "Fami Locker" appears, but what kind of service is it? Are there any usage restrictions?

What is a family locker?
This service, available in some areas, allows you to collect your parcels at any time via the locker, simply by holding the issued 2D code over the Family Locker, without having to wait in line at a multi-function copier or cash register.
You can receive your parcel at any time you like, even if you are often away from home or would like to receive it at night.

When placing an order, if you select "Pick up at convenience store or Yamato Transport" as the pickup method, the Family Locker available for pickup will be displayed.
Please note that if the item cannot be stored in the Family Locker due to reasons such as there being no space available or the size being inappropriate, it will be stored at the office and may be returned to the warehouse once the collection deadline has passed.
*If you select the Family Locker option, you cannot change to picking up your item at the store register.
*Large orders, such as orders that include two or more pairs of shoes, may not be able to fit into the lockers.
*The storage period is 3 days, including the day of arrival. If the storage period expires, the product will be returned to us and your order will be canceled.

How are you dealing with the invoice system?

An itemized statement that complies with the invoice system is included, so you can use it as a receipt.
Your registration number can be found under your shop name in the top right corner of your statement.
We have also received many requests for separate handwritten receipts, so we have switched to the invoice system.
If you would like a receipt, please write your request, the recipient's name, and any notes in the receipt section of [STEP 3: Confirm your order details] during the order process.
As a general rule, invoices that are left blank or have ambiguous content such as product price or item cost will not be accepted.
Therefore, if we are unable to understand the details, we will change them to the appropriate name (shoe fee, apparel fee).
Once you have completed your order, please contact us using the inquiry form.
If the items are not yet prepared for shipping, we can include them in the same package, but if the items are already prepared for shipping or if you request this after the items have arrived, they will be sent by mail.

I haven't won any of the lottery items. Maybe it's the times, but I've seen a lot of resales, and people who really want the items can't buy them, which is frustrating.

As of Saturday, April 15, 2023, the lottery application terms and conditions have been revised to require linking your myNB account with your LINE account.

We have received a lot of feedback, including comments about high expectations, busy websites for popular products, and being unable to purchase products because people are at work when the products are released.
Starting in August 2021, we have introduced a lottery sales system exclusive to members, creating an environment where anyone who is a member can apply, rather than being first come, first served.
There have also been cases of fraudulent activity in the lottery sales, such as the creation of fraudulent accounts and the creation of a large number of accounts with variable information, so to improve this situation we are linking our LINE accounts to prevent the creation of multiple accounts.
We have received a lot of feedback, such as "It would have been nice if this product was also sold by lottery," so we will continue to take measures to meet your expectations.

Starting at 3:00 p.m. on September 11, 2019, we will be launching a new service: free shipping on kids' shoes at any time.
Choose the perfect shoes for your child together with you, without having to worry about shipping costs, based on their developmental stage.
*Applies to products in the kids category on the official online store.
*Excluding official online outlets.

I am a member of both the store and online stores, but the point systems are different and confusing. I think there are many people who use both stores interchangeably, so I wish they would unify them.

We have received many comments regarding our membership system.
On April 16, 2019, our directly managed store memberships were integrated into the "myNB" membership, making it even more convenient!
By merging the two systems, points have been unified and you can use and earn points at both the official store and the official online store.

When I receive it at the convenience store, it's in a paper bag that's not handy, so it's hard to carry it home...

We have started a convenience store pickup service and created original delivery bags perfect for takeaway!
We understand that some customers may have been confused when they received their parcels in paper bags that were not designed for carrying. We apologize for not being able to provide this service at the start of the service.
It has a stylish and convenient design that can be carried by hand or folded up to be used as a clutch bag.
You can check out the design here.
*Depending on the size of the product, shipping bags may not be available.
*Please note that shoes (excluding children's) will be delivered in cardboard boxes.

If I can't receive it within the specified delivery time, can I pick it up at a convenience store?

Starting November 2, 2018, we have launched a service that allows you to pick up your items at a convenience store that is convenient for you, such as your home, office, or travel destination.
There's no hassle of redelivery, so it's also reassuring for women living alone who may be a little worried about receiving the package at home.
You can find out more details here.

There was a free shipping campaign on the official online outlet, but I wonder if it will become a regular service. If I have to pay shipping every time, I'll buy more at once...

In response to your feedback, we have revised our shipping fees to match those of our official online store, effective from 12:00 on August 29, 2018.
[Before revision] Shipping fee is a flat rate of 650 yen (tax included) regardless of the order amount.
[After revision] Free shipping for orders over 5,400 yen (tax included)
If your order amount is less than 5,400 yen (tax included), the shipping fee is 650 yen (tax included).
Please take a look. The official online outlet is Here

*We have revised the prices again due to the consumption tax increase on October 1, 2019.
[After revision] Free shipping for orders over 7,000 yen (tax included)
If your order total is less than 7,000 yen (tax included), shipping is 660 yen (tax included) and 1,100 yen (tax included) for Hokkaido and Okinawa Prefecture.

I paid with d-payment, but I'm not sure how to check if I used points.

The total order amount shown in the order completion email and shipping email, as well as the total payment amount shown on the purchase invoice (delivery note) included with the product, are amounts before using d points and may differ from the actual amount charged.
Regarding the total confirmed payment amount, please be sure to check the amount stated in the order completion email from Docomo, which includes the amount used for points.
*"d Points used" and "d Points to be awarded" will not be listed in emails or statements from this online store.

We are sorry that we are unable to improve the service we currently provide and would like to ask you to confirm this.

I bought a pair of golf shoes. I noticed that one of the spikes was missing from the bottom of the shoe. I would like you to post information about replacement cleats.

It has been posted on the page about golf shoes.

I bought a sale item, but the size just doesn't fit. If I can't exchange it, I'd like to be able to return it.

Sale items were not eligible for return, but due to improvements in the services of the official online outlet, the return policy of the official online store has also been improved. Sale items will now be accepted for return.
Please click here for information on returns on the official online store.

I wish outlet products could be returned as well. If I can't return them, I have to worry about the size or color, and I can't buy them casually. It's a shame because I can buy them at a reasonable price.

It has been a month since we opened, and we understand that there are a variety of opinions about changing the service we offer.
As a result of considering further improvements to make it easier for more customers to purchase our affordable products, we have decided to start accepting returns from June 6th, 2018 at our official online outlet, even though we think it may be a little premature.
Returns will be subject to the same criteria as for regular products.

Member-only sales are great, but it would also be nice to have an outlet where I could easily purchase items that I missed the opportunity to buy or that are out of my reach.

We received a lot of feedback on this matter.
To provide our members with great deals, great bargains and to make shopping even more enjoyable, we opened our official online outlet on May 10, 2018.
You can purchase previous season's cleats, training shoes, and sportswear at 30% to 50% off.
This membership will be the same as that of the official online store, myNB, so current members do not need to register again.

I want to use my birthday coupon, a perk for MyNB members, but the item I want is on sale and I can't use it. I would like to use the birthday coupon because it only comes once a year.

We have received a lot of feedback regarding the birthday coupon.
In order to make this available to more members, we have changed this offer to apply to all products from May 2018.
If you have any requests other than sale items, NB1 custom shoes are also included.
The terms of use remain the same, and you can use this coupon for purchases of 11,000 yen or more (tax included). For more details, please check your own special coupon on My Page.

I would like you to increase the number of payment methods. I don't have a credit card, and I'm often not at home so I can't receive cash on delivery, so I would like you to consider other options.

Unlike cash on delivery, payment can be made by invoice sent to you after the product arrives.
