I have had a pair in black since Feb 2010.  I walk several blocks in them each day, and they have been really comfortable.  However, I bought a half size bigger.  When I bought my Sketchers sneakers before this pair, I had to exchange them for a half size bigger also; so, I learned from that experience.  I know that does not always work though since I bought a pair of Sketchers Bikers Cabbage Patch sneakers recently, and even though I bought them in a half size bigger, they don't fit right, and they hurt my feet.
