First of all, this is one great looking shoe. Style is not its problem. But the shoe is extremely narrow.... I’ve owned a dozen or so pairs of Nike running shoes (Free, RunAllDay, Downshifter, etc) and I always fit easily into my recommended size in a medium width. But with this gym shoe in my recommended size, the shoe length is as expected, but the width is painfully tight. Since there is no width option, I have to send it back ?

My teenage son loves these sneakers. He has always worn Nike but has purchased the same style for the past several years. These are a little different but still fit him perfectly like Nike sneakers usually do for him. And they also are affordable Nike sneakers!

Bought these for my 11 year old son. I think he actually has pretty narrow width feet, but these shoes were too tight on the sides for him. We are returning and trying a different brand. Shame because he liked the look

It runs a little big. Do not recommend for running, hard on joints and encourages heel striking with the big heel part. This shoe is pretty bulky and a little heavy. Would wish for it to be more breathable and light weight with more cushion

I'd also recommend:

Adidas, New Balance

Arch support was back in the heel of the shoe. Was not in the arch of the foot at all.

I was disappointed with the fit. I bought these shoes for doing some aerobic training. They're not exactly painful to wear for a 30-45 minute workout, but I would not consider wearing them otherwise, even around the house.

The shoe looks nice, but is distinctly smaller than other brands labeled the same size. Maybe Zappo's should actually take the time to measure a sample or two.
