My 14 year old daughter loves the look, fit and quality of these spiked sneakers. I recommend ordering a half or full size compared to what you usually wear. She usually wears a size 8 and we bought a size 7 as it should fit better. If you need this shape you will also need Pyramid Tips which are sold separately. The associated space is not in the shape of a pyramid. I am not sure how well they will hold up as she has only worn them for a few weeks. But they seem to do well and comfortably
