I've only been wearing my new shoes for a few days now, but they fit pretty well and have the exact look I was going for.  They appear very sturdy and well made, but only time will tell on that.
I'm getting a little slippage in the heel (ordered same size I always wear in New Balance footwear), but it's not bad.  I may invest in some higher arch insoles at some point, but, again, not absolutely needed at this point.  So far, so good.
