True to fit. Thank goodness. The comfort is great. I really liked the color. It is a nice shoe all around. I've always worn NB for the main reason. The width. Theses shoes fit just as good. Just as Comfortable. I would recommend this shoe brand for sure.

This is my third pair of inov8 shoes. The last two pairs lasted ~10 years (with heavy use) and were both size 8. For this shoe I ordered an 8 and an 8.5 to be sure of a fit because I needed them ASAP. The 8.5 fit perfectly with a cotton Wander sock but a bit snug with a light Smartwool sock. These shoes stretch out just a bit over time so I anticipate the smart wool sock to work out just fine. I have a bit of a high arch and don’t really notice any arch support but they are still comfortable after a full day of errands etc. I wear jeans a lot and they look sleek rather than chunky

These are comfortable, light weight shoes. I like the fact that the heel is level, not raised and that the padding is not overdone. The toe box is roomy. Great for the gym and traveling.

I’m not a heavy lifter, but I feel secure in the shoes on lower body strength days. Also versatile enough with, no delayed pains, to do interval speed work on the treadmill. Definitely recommend especially for anyone with a wider toe box. Colors are true to photos, super cute!

These are the best fitting sneaker I have ever worn! I bought THREE pair, I loved them SO MUCH! The heel holds your foot in place, unlike my HOKA brand sneaker. My new favorites!

I purchased these for weight lifting. I love a flat shoe with a good grippy sole. These were perfect. Sticky on the gym floor and flexible. Great style, too. A tiny bit snug in the toe but I don't mind because I only wear them in the gym. I will say that if it is raining they are a little slick outdoors.

Length and toe box fit well but very narrow in the midfoot. The soles have a nice rebound.

I liked the shoe and wanted to keep it but the size 13 was slightly too small. I would appreciate if Inov-8 (and the industry as a whole) would make half sizes past 12.5. I don't know why they seem to think that people with feet larger than a 13 grow in whole sizes or want ill fitting shoes by having to go up in whole size increments.

This is my second pair. They are amazingly supportive for such a light boot. The uppers and sole material hold up very well to normal trail and light off trail use; however, the midsole loses its bounce just like a pair of running shoes. I've found them to be quite roomy and with my low volume feet, a thick insole was needed. They also run a full size too short as where I'm usually a 295-45.5-US11.5 in these I was a 305 US 12.5.

I am an in most shoes but often go up in athletic shoes and boots. I needed the 8.5 in these. I have narrow feet but these work for me (didn't come in a narrow). I like them.

i have used these ONLY for weight training/lifting since 2018....i use arch inserts and can say these are fantastic. I highly recommend them if you want to use these for squatting, lower body, and even lateral training. They arer well made and have lasted me 6 yrs without any problem with stability or balance

A big toe box shoe that feels roomy yet supportive. I use them for walking as well as workouts and love the minimal, "not-marshmallowy" feel.

Creased really painfully in the toe area. Great company and loved the shoes in the past. Maybe just a flaw cause it was only in one shoe. Returned.

Fits true to size. I am a Womens 6 and the 6 fits perfect. I have a small ankle and heel, but need a wide toe box for the front of my foot. The toe box is perfectly wide, while the rest of shoe feels secure. Very cute shoes!

Not soft and cushioned.... more structured but much better for my knees than the Hoka brand that I had to return. I think the shoe runs short. I should have sized up a half size.

I have to return the shoe. The shoe comfort was good and the width was wide enough for person with a wide foot. I reason I returned it because the kid part of the shoe was so tight that it hurts, even that I loosened the shoe laces it was still tight. If you a smaller thinner foot this would work for you.

I returned these due to the toe box being far more narrow than advertised. I have been wearing Altras for several years now and wanted to try something different but these were not the solution for me - toes way too cramped.
