I play in a basketball league.  I had bought some Nike Air Maxs about 2 years ago and could never break them in.  I didn't want to spend a ton of money on shoes that I only wore for basketball so I found these.  They are worth every penny.  They are light (for basketball shoes) and comfortable.  I got blisters the first time I wore them but haven't had any since.  The best feature is a soft cushion liner that wraps comfortably around the Achilles area.  It really makes a difference.  I wear a 12 generally and ordered a 12.  I could maybe use a little more room as far as width goes but they fit just fine.
