I’m a little bit fussy about my sneakers; usually buy New Balance or Aetrex. I wear a nine - my heel is narrow and I have custom orthotics. I am surprised at how wonderful these sneakers are. The toebox is fabulous, the fit is perfect, there seems to be sufficient arch support so that I may not put my orthotics in these sneakers to begin with. And to boot they are absolutely adorable. I got the charcoal gray with pink laces. I wore them around the house for about an hour they are terrific they feel wonderful there is no break in. And again let me repeat I’m fussy! I may buy another pair in another color they are that good. I really am shocked but happily shocked! Oh and I forgot the price is terrific.
