My biggest concern while ordering these shoes was the size. I had read that they run small and ordering a size bigger would be recommended. Well, that's probably right. I normally wear a size 43 shoe (US 10 and UK 9) but ordered the 44 (US 11 and UK 10). The perfect fit for me would be 43 1/2 but that doesn't exist :) Now I have some comfortable room for my feet which if I feel like, i can manage by wearing thick socks. My only other experience with a size 44 is the cortech calf length shoes that i have since a few years. Those fit me well too and they kinda seem to run on the smaller side i feel. These shoes accommodate my feet very well since i have a very wide foot size and my right leg is slightly larger than the left leg. There didn't seem to be a lot of airflow around my feet - i was wearing thin socks. Even so, it was comfortable even above 25 deg C (say 80 F) The shoes didn't need any running so I am happy from day 1. Shifting is great but I think there is some foam under the shift region so the feedback was not there for me to figure if the gear has shifted or not. Maybe this will improve with time. The build quality is okay - not exceptional but for that price I think its a good deal.
