I had this exact shoe before, but wore it out after several years. And it was not the sole that wore out, but the inside lining.

Anyway, this was what I wanted again. I love the 2 strap velcro, the simple tread and very basic overall look. No crazy logos that advertise, just the "N" in black so I can wear this shoe in many settings. As far as fit, I went with the size the old shoe listed. When it came, it was a bit tight, but stretched out nicely.

No complaints really. As a person with very large feet, it was a welcome relief to find my size without having to drive all over the county. When you have feet like mine, shoe buying is less of a matter of finding the best deal and more the art of compromise.

I might even buy another pair just to have as back up.
