Review on ๐Ÿ‘Ÿ Caldera 4 Trail Running Shoes by Brooks by Richard Koh

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great boot. But the size is too small.

I'm wearing 10.5. But I go to 11 to make sure the shoes don't pinch when ordering online so I don't have to deal with returns. So here is what I ordered. And this is the first size 11 shoe I've ever tried on that's too small in the toe area. It's too small and unforgiving: there's a protective pad around the thumb (which is a great feature), but it's pretty stiff, so it doesn't matter much. So being too small is a big problem. The toenail turned black and fell off. I returned mine. However, I could not buy shoes in a larger size as the price went up 40% that day. But I managed to find 11.5 in another store. And I can report that once you go up a size from usual the shoes become very comfortable and all indications are that they will serve me well for the next 500 miles.
