These shoes are everything I hoped they'd be and more! They're comfy, sturdy and durable.  I got one half size larger than my actual shoe size and they were just slightly snug with socks on at first but once I loosened the laces a bit they were perfect. I've been wearing them around the house to break them in (and because I'm in love with them) but I don't really think much breaking in is necessary, they're already soft and stretchy. Get them, you won't be sorry. Now I want pairs in other colors, I wish there were more color options.
