i have fussy old feet which would prefer to be in slippers or barefoot but i can't do miles that way. these are good for me.
i got 9 1/2 wide and think its good in the width. possibly, a little longer than other 9 1/2s.
they feel better than my new balance sneakers as they have a softer ride under my foot than my sneaks which haven't much cushioning. the support is pretty good, i have not used the extra hole at the top for the laces. i can walk easily in them but do notice that just standing around in them is not as comfy on my forefoot. i rated them 4 stars because i did notice what i felt was significant wear on the sole after only 2 miles on the treadmill! i don't think a shoe should wear that fast. hopefully,they will give me enough milage that i feel i got my monies worth. thankfully, i got them at a much lower price here than a regular store.
i have only had them a week or so now and i don't know if i would order them again yet because of the durablity question.

well, as of 3-1-13, the first layer has now worn off the heel on one of my shoes. i can stick my finger into the previously enclosed air pocket.i am still comfortable in them and use them for 3-4 miles  of daily treadmill excercise.
