Great running shoes!
These are great running shoes! They look and feel great. The foam sole has just the right amount of give, without feeling flimsy. I love them

Normally by a 10.5, was way too big
Shoes run really large, too wide and too long returned.

Nice looks, but heel design could be better
These shoes have a great look to them, and I like how they have plenty of cushion in the midfoot. However, the heel counter is very stiff and has zero padding. This is causing my heel to slide up and down and would likely give me a blister if I were to wear them long-term. I could not size down or else the fit for my toes would be too tight. This is a common problem I face with dress shoes, which also have a stiff heel with no padding. In conclusion, I'd view this shoe as a comfier, more casual version of a dress shoe, but I was disappointed that it wasn't very comfortable in the heel. I'm going to try my luck with the Nova 4 Traveller Lace which seems to have better heel padding.

Not comfortable
My heels slip up and down because the back of the shoe is too soft. I wanted to return them but a family member throughout the box. I like the feel of the shoe and the style.

Excellent Show for Walking
Bought a pair over a year ago and have worn them almost daily walking and as everyday shoes. They've held up well. Recently ordered a second pair. Lightweight, which I prefer when walking distances, and durable.

Great Shoes no break in required
Wore these to Masters weekend at Augusta National, worked wonders on the steep hills. Comfort was 10/10 and had no sore feet after walking 16 miles. Shoes do not need to be broken in, they are comfortable out the box.

My son likes them
I bought them for my son so he would have something to wear besides tennis shoes. Everyone likes wearing these to school because they're very comfortable, and he likes that they have a really good grip.
