sent me two wrong sizes
I ordered an 8.5 and they sent me one shoe in size 7 and one in size 9…. Not sure how it’s even possible to mess up an order this bad.

runs small, not super comfortable
I ordered these one half size up based on other reviews. That was smart. However, I wore these once and the top of the back was so stiff, my Achilles ached after a short wear — I might have had a blister if not wearing socks that covered there. Shoes like these should feel great right away — I’m not breaking in casual sneakers.
The purple is cute but they look long and not flattering. I will be returning because of the stiff Achilles issue.

Upper fabric too thin
The shoes are a little bit narrow for my feet. The deal breaker is the thin fabric of the upper material. The suede is of good quality, though. My feet are 238mm in lengthand I usually wear size 8.5 in New Balance and size 8.5 in this 475 fits my feet. I like the color of the shoes. What a pity! I feel 475 fits men's feet better because men's feet are typically narrow on the balls of feet but wide on the heels.

Comfortable sneakers in green
This is by far the most comfortable pair of sneakers I owned. Love the green and its light

Comfy and Light NB Kicks
Was searching for the New Balance X Miu Miu collab, and came across the RC42 and this 475, Purchased both. Love the green. Light and comfortable. It fits more on the snug side, but not tight enough to be uncomfortable.
