I have had them for a couple of years. I think they still still sell them in different color combinations.

The fit is a little small. They fit like a glove.

^^^ Stretchy in the toe area....I'll bet they do fit good.

As I get older, I can’t wear flat shoes with zero support i.e. Chuck Taylors. I have to put a Superfeet insole in them.

For 15+ years, I wore ankle height Romeo style Georgia Boots. Last year I bought a pair of slip on sketchers, for the ease of putting them on and taking them off, especially going into finished houses. Sneakers were not on the radar until this weekend, when I was driving the new to me 911. The pedals are so close and I’m not used to them. I took a relatively new pair of Nike sneakers that were in the garage for several years and cut the outside soles off, to drive the car. Made a huge difference.

I’d spend $100 on some OG Adidas Country sneaks, green/white, like what I ran XC with in high school. I would not spend $700 on original made-in-France Country sneakers.

You didn't give us much to go on.

I still don't know what you're looking for.

Driving a 3 pedal sports car with a small footwell and small, close pedals is a PITA with bulky shoes or shoes with big bulky soles. Barefoot style shoes (whether with separate toes or not) makes driving in that situation sooo much better and more pleasurable.

Hoka’s here. Have had inflammatory issues with the balls of my feet for years. Hoka had the solution.
