Order 0.5 size biggerJanuary 15, 2008 I run with such shoes (differnt color) for about a year on cross-country trails. The shoes are light and nice but fell apart - they are cheap. I wanted to order another pair but forgot the size previous were. Usually i wear 8.5 or 9.0. There's something wrong with this model. I ordered 9.0 and they don't fit but since they are so cheap I gave them as a present to my friend. Happy end!

No wonder they r sellin it that cheap b/c it is a terrible sneaker.. not good for anything, the sole is very thin, u can even feel the carpet if u wear it at home. besides, the size is screwed up. i usually wear 10, i ordered 10.5 and it was still very tight. i returned.
Great shoe, but no water protection.October 26, 2007 7 out of 7 found this review helpful
When I first opened the box, I thought they sent the wrong size. At first glance these shoes look small. Don't fret, they aren't, its just the way the are designed. They were the right size and fit beautifully.
I absolutely love these shoes. They are comfortable and feel as if you are wearing nothing, but in reality they provide great support all around.
I am a Traceur, or one who practices Parkour, that is what I bought these shoes for. The best pair of shoes I have ever bought for this. The grip is excellent, and the ankle support is great. Super lightweight.
The only negative I give it is that the mesh is just the netting part. If it is wet outside, your socks and feet get wet. Not to great if you are using these for anything that requires fast movement. Simply put, wet socks and shoes plus a lot of movement equals blisters. Be sure to get some water-proof socks if you plan on using these in wet weather.
