Started playing soccer this year for the first time in my life and I was advised to get soccer shoes. I picked these up for a good bargain. The toe box (front of shoe) is a little snug so blisters are a definate danger so I'll tape my feet as these break in. The shoes are flashy and people think I'm being humble when I tell them I have no clue on what I'm doing, and that I just came because I like to run and have fun. If soccer becomes a serious past time for me though I doubt I'll keep because of the snug fit, but otherwise order a half size up and these will be just fine.
