text: I really like the design and look of these shoes.  However, I feel the need to warn of two things.  One, the size really does run large on these.  You really need to make sure you order 1 FULL size smaller than you normally wear.  Second, these shoes have a very strong chemical odor too them.  I would highly recommend deodorizing them prior to your first wear.  The smell really is bad, trust me.  Other than those 2 small issues, I really like these shoes for the price and would recommend.
