We received normal size shoes which my husband wears so it's good that we followed the measurements/sizing chart. He usually wears a size 11 or 12 but in this shoe he needed a size 12. We bought this shoe because he has plantar fasciitis and it's the only shoe we've tried that doesn't hurt his feet. He really wishes they had a little more bounce and cushioning, but they do a good job. Nice looking shoes.
