If the width of these shoes was just a little wider like the New Balance brand that I normally wear, I think these shoes would of been a great product for the price. I'm just a little unhappy that the majority of the people said that they fit as expected. I don't know, I guess that statement might be for all of the different widths combined. I really liked everything about them as far as the length of the shoes and the fit was fine if I didn't wear any socks they were only a little snug. But when putting socks on they felt too confining to be comfortable. They might have eventually stretched out, but you shouldn't have to wait a long time for that to happen. If they would have been just a little wider I would probably given them 5 stars because of the comfort they provided my foot otherwise.
