Great shoes I'm a carpenter but I've been doing all kinds of housework sometimes on roofs sometimes under houses for at least 3-4 years and I don't need other tennis shoes they're made big all around, which is good for my slightly large wide foot, fit like a champ although they might be too wide for guys with skinny legs, with all other brands I have to go taller and wide, imo this is one of those rare finds that worth ordering extra and savings, cushioning and support are excellent, I got a couple of aging carpenters who only wore skate/deck shoes and had foot/back pain to try this and was won over. You can expect 3-6 months from a pair of these shoes in home construction and that's all I would want from a pair of work shoes to maintain good foot health. size 12 reg. comparable to other brands width 12.5/13, if you want to use your own insoles you can get Stamina Nuevos without memory foam for less, Stamina Nuevos cuts have $10 more memory foam.
