I love them. I'm a size 8.5 and they fit perfectly and are so comfortable. They're my first pair of Earth shoes and I can see more in my future now. No trouble 'adjusting' to the negative heal. I could feel the difference when I first put them on, but it never felt awkward.

Overall, I'm pretty happy with these shoes. They're great for weekend days with a pair of jeans and a sweatshirt when I feel like being comfortable but don't want to wear my running shoes. They're a good casual shoe, and mine still look pretty darn good after wearing them for almost a year. They even survived a northern NY winter, but if I had it to do over again I might have sprayed them with camp dry or something first.I was skeptical of the negative heel technology, and it did take a bit of getting used to. The first few days I kept scuffing my toe and stumbling, especially when walking on industrial carpet or going up stairs. After I got used to them, I found them to be very comfortable and it did seem that my back didn't ache quite as much after a long day walking around the mall shopping. I would recommend wearing these around your house a few times before you go out in public, and it should spare you some of the embarrassment that I had.The only drawback to these shoes is the high price. I wish they were cheaper, because I don't think they should cost as much as a pair of leather Doc Martens, but that's just my opinion. Price is the only reason that kept me from rating these as a five.
