text: This seems to be good quality shoe but I will be returning. I have a slightly narrow foot, with normal arch.  The forefoot seems wides on this shoe which seems consistent with Salomon brand.  The arch support is very high and is basically bruising my left arch and the support rests slightly too far back towards the heel. The shoes seems to run longer than normal sizes. A 1/2 size smaller would be fine for me,  but then the arch support would sit even farther back, causing more problems. Maybe I got a lemon pair, maybe this is how this model fits, maybe my feet are not perfectly matched ( have not noticed these issues on other shoes ). I wanted this shoe to work for me, but I can't wear them more than an hour or so around the house.  This is just my humble experience with my first pair of Salomon's. Good luck, if not sure, try them around the house a few times...
