I tried these on at the store but they didn't have my size.  However, I could tell they were super-comfortable, so I had to get them -- just so happens that Amazon did carry my size.  What's also nice, in addition to the comfort, is that they're dressy enough sneakers to wear for a night out with some dark jeans, and casual enough to wear just hanging out with the guys.  So that's versatile and comfortable, plus not ridiculously expensive.  Great buy.
