Tight around the ankles (I do wish there was a tongue as well), but perfect in terms of box width. A little too long overall. The narrowness approaching the ankle also makes me notice a sort of "lip" on the sole? It feels as though it pushes the outside of my foot up a bit. Asides from the issue with the "lip," the sizing issue is a common issue I have with other shoes, where at an appropriate width, the shoe is too long.
I got these shoes so I can lift barefoot-ish in a gym where they do not allow that, and they do serve that purpose. After a few wears, I got more used to the feel.
