I like these shoe's generally. I'll wear them but this purchase the width seems to have expanded. I have a very narrow foot, which is why I was hoping I'd found a shoe I could count on for consistency in size. I have the Merrell Hiking boots and they seem to stay consistent. I hope nothing changes. I do not have the ability to go and shop for shoes so have to count on that consistency. I'll wear them as they are - - I do like the color. The last pair lasted me a good long while and I put a lot of miles on them.
