[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As the others mentioned, I’d go a half size up. Width is good and spikes are nice for turf. I play goalie and forward so I’m not too picky on types of spikes for these guys. I needed a pair because my regular cleats stopped my goal kicks by digging into the turf.

Great fit, true to size, feel great. I’m really happy with these shoes and quality and I think I’ll upgrading to the more elite models later.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] They run just fine. A little expensive for what they are.
