Shoe Size: Felt a full size smaller than marked Shoe Arch: Excellent arch support Shoe Width: Felt true to width
This shoe is extremely soft and cushiony with support in all the right places. However, it does not fit true to size. I ordered a 9, which seems to be my new normal sneaker size and my big toes were still squished up against the front of the shoe. If you're looking for this sneaker to just barely fit, you may want to go up a half size but if you need a little room for the toesies you may need to go up a full size. The upper is extremely light and thin. In spite of the short length I tried them on the elliptical for about 10 minutes. It wasn't long before the outside of my foot and my 3rd, 4th, and pinky toes became numb...could be due to the size being too small. The numbness is a problem for me anyway, but it was particularly bad in this shoe. The New Balance line seems to give me the least amount of problems in that area.

These shoes are awesome - I am an instructor for a very intense aerobics class and my feet frequently don't get enough support. Usually shoes that do provide enough support on the bottom aren't supportive enough in the ankles, and collapse from the lateral movement (such as running shoes). They are super lightweight. I normally wear a size 7.5 in regular shoes and an 8 in sneakers, but I decided to try the 7.5 in these. They are a bit small, and next time I will get an 8, but I am getting them again for sure. Plus, for the money, they are unbeatable.

Most Comfortable Shoe I Have Ever Owned! This shoe is great for running and walking, and it feels great to just wear around. I would wear them all day long if I could!

Nice, but small - The shoe was too small, but seemed really comfortable. I am going to reorder it a half size larger.

This shoe runs small. I just received this shoe today and it's a half size to a full size too small. I wear either an 8.5 to a 9 depending on the shoe. I ordered this in an 8.5 and I barely had room for my toes. I am debating whether to order the 9 or 9.5. They seemed really comfortable from what I can tell. And really cool design.

Comfort Plus - I go to Jazzercise 3X a week and these are the best workout shoes I've bought in awhile. Plenty of cushion & my feet don't go numb like they do in some shoes. I always buy sneakers a full size larger than my street shoes.
