These are definitely nice shoes. I suspect a regular size 11 should fit like a regular size 11, not like a 11D or E width. My feet swim in them and I tend to have a wide foot (I can't wear Nike shoes because they are too tight). Gliding in nature is normal, but does not constrict the ankle or the tip of the foot. It should be denser for "sports" shoes. I definitely wouldn't play them. Rather a very random situation. The quality is good but the fit is really not very good.
