American sizing is criminal capitalist bullshit without standards. I am a 47. It fits perfectly. American sizing allows brands to fit and size differently to create anti consumer manipulation. The shoes are made in the same places. Just the American targeted junk is exploitive nonsense by design.

Also, are any shoe brands making quality sneakers like existed 5+ years ago? This 3D formed fabric junk is low quality nonsense that lasts a quarter as long as shoes from 5+ years ago. I loved Asics for a long time but everything they sell now is this low quality 3D formed crap.

    I worked at an orthotics lab

    What’s your opinion on Oofos? I wear their slides at home and sneakers outside. They have so far been the plushest footwear I’ve ever experienced.

      Haha, let me clarify. I worked at an orthotics lab over six years ago, and even then I didn’t construct them, I did customer facing receptionist and receiving duties, I’m not very technically acquainted with the industry at large, just with what brands we recommended and the fact that I still wear New Balance in a warehouse job and find them comfortable and long lasting.

      Sorry I can’t give any better info on that brand, they either weren’t around when I had that job or were small enough that I never heard of customers wanting to use them.
