I really love these shoes. I got them because they had gel in them and the other reviewers said that they help with heel pain. They are very comfortable and give very good traction and side to side stability. Some reviewers said they ran small. I ordered my regular size, a size 9 and they fit just fine and I have a wide foot. I love them so much I just cant say enough about them. The first day I got them, I didn't want to take them off.
