adidas SM II Shoe Black with White Stripes, 7

I can’t address any of the negative reviews but can say I like these shoes. I have owned the Pinetree brand of martial arts shoes but like these better. I ordered my regular shoe size and they fit right out of the box. They are snug, which helps when doing tai chi and workout classes at the Y. There is more arch support than I thought there would be even though the bottom of the show is flat. I am happy with this purchase and will but again when needed
