Bought as cycling shoes, would also wear for hiking. Pretty true to size, I usually wear a 6 to 6 1/2, purchased a 7 based on reviews. While a little bit more toe space at the end, I don’t mind because they are a bit narrow in width. Really difficult to get on my feet-use both thumbs to press the tongue sides against the shoe, then a shoe horn for the back-haha-being 59 years old is no joke! But once the shoe is on, it’s Cinderella at the ball! I’ve been wearing them for a few weeks now, still in love. They feel great, love the light arch support and the grippy treads.
