The knit material is nice, similar to Nike flyknit. Unfortunately, the shoe doesn't fit well at all. Very narrow fit in the front, but very loose in the back. Go up if you're a half size. I'm a 9.5 normally, a 9 is uncomfortably small in the toe box, and a 10 is so loose in the back that the shoe constantly slips off the heel. Work around is to go up in size, then add your own padding on the heel.
