The size chart of the company is not in accordance with reality. If you wear a size 44, you should get a size 43. It has poor walking support, hitting the ground too low in height before the toes due to the tightness if you notice. The back and top are open, so when you walk, it feels like the shoe wants to come off. Also, the photos have nothing to do with the shoe up close. I made a bad purchase for 180€ from abroad, walking in them feels like a cat wearing shoes, not comfortable at all. I had to return it. Ultimately, it doesn't compare to the stability and comfort of Salomon.
