I was pleased with how the shoes looked, got them in blue. I usually go for size 13 (US) for running shoes, and so went for the same here, fit was way loose, used a thick aftermarket insole and problem solved. My gripe is this, after a couple of VERY mild rain showers fell on me, the fabric got somewhat discoloured and they now look old and unappealing. Just in case you're wondering, I am not particularly worried about minor blemishing, but when your shoes look like they have been with you for a couple of years only after roughly five uses, it's hard not be disappointed.
