These shoes are very nice looking. Size however is very off. Plan on buying a full size larger and if you have a wider foot, DO NOT BUY THESE. I bought these to replace a worn out pair of altra paradigm max cushion shoes (LOVED THEM!) the fit of this pair is very tight! Wore them for the first time just to take kids to school and my feet started burning and went numb. I had the laces laced for a wide foot runner, and still couldn't even make it home wearing these. Not for wide feet. Returning and purchasing the same pink and white pair of altra paradigm max cushion. Best pair of running shoes ever
