These are Patagonia sneakers. They are lightweight and have elastic laces, so you don't need to tie them. They are also useful as a change of shoes after running or for travel. - Color: Burgundy/Red - Brand: patagonia, Patagonia - Size: US8, approximately 26cm I am unable to answer vague questions about sizing, such as "How does this compare to the shoes I usually wear?" I would like to sell these to someone who will purchase them at this price. Thank you for looking.
