First things first, I love the shoes. They fit me perfectly and I think the purple ones are "cool" enough to wear with normal clothes. When my feet are measured I wear a women's 12 narrow or about a 10.5 in men's. A Brooks 11 fits me very well in this shoe as well as the Beasts I had once upon a time. I don't have a TON of room but I wouldn't consider going bigger. If you have a wide foot you might want to consider going a half size larger than your usual athletic shoe or possibly this just isn't the shoe for you.It's really important to note this shoe is not cushioned and if you're looking for a light shoe with any give at all I might suggest Saucony's Kinvara, which I also liked running in a lot and is also very light. The Brooks sole just feels like hard foam when you squeeze it. Right now I use this shoe to walk around in (I walk between 3 and 5 miles every day) and at the gym, but when I start running outside again in spring, I might prefer a different shoe that makes me feel more bouncy.Again, I can't say enough how much I like wearing this shoe, but I guess with the hard sole they just feel like incredibly comfortable well fitting street shoes, and when I put them on they don't mentally trigger me into running mode. I'll try them in spring and perhaps report back, if this version of the shoe is even on sale.++UpdateI have started jogging in these on the treadmill. Not a ton, maybe 4 times a week for 3 or 4 miles? But I still love them and I'm buying another pair.

I don't ever write reviews but I had to with these shoes. I had just bought a pair of Asics gel nimbus 12 and loved how soft and comfortable they were but they didn't help me with my problems when running uphill (achilles tendon/calves) so I decided to buy these. I had always went around everywhere barefooted when I was a kid so I figured why not start running like that. I loved how they looked when they came and when I put them on WOW! I couldn't believe how light and yet comfortable they were. I haven't had any problems running uphill anymore and they are so light I feel like I can fly! Only problem was when I went for my first run in them I didn't wear any socks and they rubbed against my achilles tendon on my left leg and got up in there pretty good so I'll be wearing socks when I run with them from now on. I love them so much I have been wearing them to school and everywhere else lol. Really recommend these for minimalist running!

I had major feet problems (Plantars Faciatis??) and a Stress Fracture from the inserts the Dr. gave me. Couldn't run more then 1/2 mile at times. Started with Vibrams and gradually worked into them. By making my foot and ankle stronger I have now started training for a Half Marathon. The feeling that I get when wearing the VFFs in grass I now get from wearing the Green Silence on pavement. Consistently running 10-13 miles three times a week in the Green Silences. These aren't as bare feeling as VFFs, but they are considered racing flats by some. Buy a half size up though, first pair I bought were great for 5 miles, but a half size up feel even better. Plenty of room in the toe box area so my toes don't get squished together. If you like toe splay, and the VFFs, you really should get a pair of these. Not affiliated with this site-- but check out the review at <...>. I'm already looking at getting a 3rd pair for a upcoming deployment to Afghanistan.
