Not the best choice for high arches

I recently had to replace a pair of Nikes and was looking for something that would work well and look different. I've worn them a few times since receiving them and while they're not the worst shoes I've ever worn, they're not quite what I was looking for in terms of performance. To give you an idea, I am very heavy and wear between 5.0 and 6.5 depending on the shoe. I have a very high mid arch and ordered these shoes in a size 6.5. While the length of the shoe was good, the construction of the shoe didn't allow for much flex in the instep. So while I started well; After about 15 minutes I had to take them off and adjust the laces so they were completely slack in the instep and toe areas. I think if my arches weren't so high these shoes would be great. A half size might help if you do that too. At the same time they are very light, which I like, and very beautiful. The photo doesn't convey the contrast between yellow and green as well as it looks live. I hope if you wear them a little more it helps break them up a little. *EDIT* After trying them again at the gym, the pain was just unbearable. The seam was too tight on my left instep. I measured the seams and found that the difference in placement was almost 1/4 inch. I cut the stitching on one and found some relief but will stick with other brands in the future.

Pros

Cons
