I love these but I can't give the full 5 stars because of the size surprise. I own another pair of Rocket Dogs, similar style (they have a LOT of styles that look pretty much the same) and those fit me perfectly. Yet a 3rd triplet of this style was too small and these are HUGE, like, I need to wear VERY thick socks or walk right out of the heel on one foot. The size inconsistency in the same brand and pretty much same style is very frustrating. And a different style of Rocket Dog was again too small in the same exact size.

Also, I got the neon pink and they are no as pictured. I guess that's on me? Maybe neon can't be captured in a photo? But they are just not this pretty pink at all. They are so loud, I got asked to turn off my shoes at a show the other night so the dancers didn't trip. I mean loud! Statement loud. Not that pink aren't gonna be a statement, but I've had pink Converse before in pale and bright pink and they mumbled compared to what these shout!

But I love them anyway and will make do with the thick sock situation since they weren't on Amazon Prime. I love this style of Rocket Dog because I have moved to minimal footwear and these have the wide toe box I now require. And no arch support and zero drop. All good. What they lack is a flexible sole. See above about walking right out of one of them. So annoying. Even for someone not wanting a minimal shoe, I'd think most would expect a bit more bend in the sole.

Again, I'll make do because these are compromise shoes for those sitting around and standing around see and be seen events, and with them shouting, seen they will be.
