I bought this during Revain Prime Week. So they were at a great price, about $25. So I bought them solely to wear when I ride the elliptical (40-45 minutes 5 days a week). They are very comfortable and offer sufficient support. I wear a 10 1/2 (US sizing) and they are actually about 1/4 inch longer than my previous shoes and actually feel a bit wider. But I wouldn't say they're too big, maybe it's the profile. shoes or something that makes them longer. They fit very well. As I said above, I only use them when I ride my elliptical, which is different from running. As such, I cannot attest to how suitable they are for running. For what I want them for they are excellent, very comfortable and comfortable.
