I had been trying to find this shoe in this color for a while with no luck. I was very wary of buying something as size specific as a shoe online, so I went to my local outdoor/hiking/climbing store and tried on a pair very similar to these. As with most people their shoe size varies from shoe to shoe. I usually wear a 9.5 or 10, so I ordered the 10 and it was a perfect fit. I even have a wide flat foot and the regular width fit perfectly. I got these for summer wear and I am certain the Ventilator aspect will come in very handy. I have already worn them quite a bit, and they are very light and comfortable. I haven't seen any defect in the manufacturing, stitching or fabric. Great Shoe.
