At first I thought they were a little big which they probably were but I have big feet so it kind of worked out. I fear that if I wouldn't have gotten a 13 and I would've gotten the 12 they would've been too small. Other then that dilema, the shoes are awesome. I am noramlly an adidas person but I really like theses ASICS the color is fabulous which makes any girl happy seeing as there are no "pretty" throwing shoes (And if there were they would not fit my large feet in a girl style). They are lightweight and just good to wear. I love how they can be used for glide and spin. I glide in shot but spin in discus so it really is the best of both worlds. I like these shoes very much and would recommend them to any thrower that both glides and spins.
Pros: lightweight, comfortable
Cons: runs slightly large

I ordered these shoes for my son, as he is a discus thrower. None of the stores carry shoes of this type, and your company was one of the few online that do. The shoes are very nice and just what he was wanting. They do run a little large.
Pros: lightweight, comfortable
Cons: runs large

I am a college shot put thrower and I had been using the same shoes since junior year of high school. This upcoming season I am looking to push my performance and I wanted to get new shoes to help. These looked just like I was looking for and they were. Maybe a little big for my feet but they only had size 13 shoes so i think I can make due. Would definitely suggest these to serious throwers who are looking for an edge
Pros: comfortable

My son was very happy with both the style and fit of his new "spinning shoes." At his very next meet he PR'd by 6 ft. Must have been the shoes! Also, we received them in a timely manner. We would not hesitate to order again from Eastbay.

These shoes are designed for men's feet, not for women. So be careful about the fit and the feel. They are a bit heavy as far as shoes go. However, they are the most amazing shoes. I could not be happier.
Pros: durable
Cons: too heavy

per the instructions on the web site, I was told to order these a size smaller because that is how they ran, that didn't ring true in our case.
So I had to ship the shoes back and request a new size which is a hassle and I had to pay more shipping.
