not GREAT either. does fit snug around the midfoot area--but that should go away after more usage, and i don't like the fact that the ankle area of the shoe bulges out when laced up, wth? i have to fully lace these, and the bulge is still kinda there. other than that, i like the look, and i like the grip, very nice. one thing im not estactic about is the color, i feel like i should have gone with the gray and black(i bout the brown and black)....well, spent about a bill on these, so im stuck.
