I was a bit disappointed when I receive these.  I bought them in WHITE.   They look very clunky  and the weave is so tight that I would imagine dirt would get stuck in the crevices.  On white pair of shoes, this would not look very good     I wanted to love these  but ended up returning.  As far as the sizing, they run about a half size  to a full size large.   I'm giving it three stars because they appear to be very well-made. But I'm taking off a star for styling and another star  for when I consider a poor weather weave design.    I ended up with another pair of Superga. - the Linu 2311.  Love these. Bought three pairs !
