I wish we could split looks and fit into two ratings. These run really small, I normally wear an 11-12 depending on the brand and 12's are always loose enough that the shoe wiggles on my foot easily, tried an 11.5 first and I couldn't even get my foot in. Shoes are almost always too loose for me vs too tight, I don't have narrow feet but I definitely don't have wide feet. I know Nike can run a little tight in general but this was real tight. Swapped out for a 12.5 and it's still tight enough that it'll be a rough ride getting them to break in but I'm hoping once I wear them a few days they'll loosen out enough to make it work. In terms of toe room it's the right amount, but side to side is just oddly tight in odd spots. When you're wearing them the bottoms sort of cave in in the middle so you get a lot more pressure on the outsides of your foot vs the middle, which doesn't really help with support as much as I'd like and the lining is glued in. But overall I'd still recommend these very much, just expect to size up at least one full size. I've tried Nikes before and not really felt the same issues, so I'm assuming it's just a this model issue for me. In terms of looks they are absolutely stunning, and other than some quality control issues I wouldn't have any critiques.
