Shoes were correct size but fit a little tight around the toe box. This causes me to have to loosen the laces quite a bit for them to be wearable. Also causes discomfort the first week or so of wearing them until they are somewhat broken in. The quality is great! I own about 10 pair of Ryderwear shoes as I am very active and 99.9 percent of the time I am in gym appareal. These are basically the only shoes I wear and are reasonably priced especially when you take advantage of their great sales. I'm a dedicated customer and I would recommend these for anyone into bodybuilding and fitness lifestyle.
