I've been looking for affordable Geox shoes. Had until now only cheap shoes that I was never really happy but. Although I have because of the color first considered back and forth whether I should take the shoes, but I have to say in reality the color is not quite as squeaky. Also turn the shoes a little big bother me now rather less, because I wear sometimes thicker socks or put me shock absorbing insoles in shoes. Since my actual shoe size would be too small. Here I still have room for maneuver. The shoes are nice and light and sweat: None, at least there where it is not desirable. The heels are a bit damp but the ventilation system is indeed in the forefoot and not the back of the heel.
