text: These shoes may run as much as a whole size smaller then what they are labeled.  I am sending them back and not reordering because the size was so greatly off and the cushioning under the foot did not even seem to be equal - almost like they were seconds.  I believe the reviewer that discovered that these are now being manufactured in at least 3 different countries (thus the inconsistency in size), and you have no control over what selection you may get delivered to you - is putting me off ordering running shoes through any online service for a while.  I will still buy Asics because they are generally the most wonderful shoe for cushioning and support and I consider them 5 star - just not online.
