good quality, light weight. I'm Eleven inch from big toe end to heel end.  The  size 44, have about 1/4 " space at end of big toe, 3/8"at 2nd toe, probably 5/8",  6/8" and 7/8" at last three littler toes. Aside from the smaller toe discrepancy's the fit is good.  could be a little snugger.  If there had been more space at end of big toe I would have gone down to the size 43.  This is my first pair and I've only tried them for fit.  They seem comfortable and allow a good range of foot motion.  It will be the closest I ever get to 'barefoot'.  They look okay too
