Comfort-oriented fit; size close to street size for all-day comfort, or slightly down for a snugger feel. The microfiber upper barely stretches; laces let you dial tension.
Fit profile: medium width, standard forefoot volume, medium heel.
No stretch expected; minimal break-in; manufacturer suggests downsizing 2-2 EU from street size.
Stiffness
Measured stiffness: 0.42 on our 0-1 scale (0 = softest). Among flat shoes it sits between the Simond Klimb (0.35, softer) and the Scarpa Origin VS (0.52, stiffer).
