These are as comfortable as slippers but with flexible stability. I got my usual NB running shoe size, (8 1/2) and they fit perfectly, especially the footbed. It really does match the shape of my foot. They have great traction on pavement and wet muddy trails. This is my first try with minimalist shoes, zero drop, and they are a natural fit. One problem - without socks, the right shoe rubs where it hits above my heal (left OK). Hopefully this will improve as they soften up.

I usually wear a 7.5 and I bought this shoe in a 8. The shoe fit well at a size 8. I also ordered them in wide, even though I have a narrow foot. I also thought the wide was nice. I was trying to get a shoe that allowed for my foot to run as if I had no shoe on. This should would have been great, but there's a really really high heel back. It dug hard into my achilles tendon. I had to return the shoes. I have a pair of merrells that fit better, but too small.
