A must-have for those who appreciate a blend of retro style and contemporary comfort, the Mestari 76 is a timeless addition to any sneakers collection.
Finally replaced my Championair sneaker for Mestari 76 Aqua Gray/ Wax Yellow
As you can see my championair got quite the use out of them as seen on the shoe on the right. I have taken them on all my trips and are always so comfortable and keep me going. Proud to say they have taken me through Albania and Mexico and all the day trips in between. The Mestari's have the same fit and fit true to size for me. My foot is narrow and stayed with my regular sizing of 7 despite the reviews to go 1/2 size bigger. Glad I did.

How would you describe the fit?:
Too small
Too big
Size purchased:8.5
Usual size worn:10
Nice shoe with a few caveats.
I do like these shoes, but I would not size up again. They feel unisex and I am a woman so they are a bit roomy and I have tripped a few times. Otherwise, they look and feel really good.

Love it
Wore it without breaking in into long days of walking and standing and had zero blisters. The walk was very comfortable and surprising support. Usually I’m used to the fusion but this was a fantastic alternative for me
