The size was exactly what I expected. I ordered size 11 and it fits just like I wanted. They look great for the price, their comfort is unmatched by any shoe I've worn before, and they're incredibly light. Haven't seen any downsides so far, my only concern is how much wear and tear this can take. But keep in mind I don't use them for running, training or any other sport - just everyday shoes. It'll probably last a while for me, but if you're going to use it for something punishing I don't know how well it will hold up.
