I went to your site and found that you have both sizes. I normally wear 11 or 11.5 in running shoes, depending on the model. Suggestions for which size to get for the MWU?

I normally train in a size 11.0, meaning I train in shoes that provides the standard thumb nail width between my longest toe and the end of the shoe. I just tried on a size 11.0 in the Universe and it has the same thumb nail length. If it were me, I'd order a half size smaller than my training shoes since I like flats to fit snugger than trainers. I should qualify that a bit and state I USED to like that type of fit when I actually raced.

P.S. Is Ron Rubio (from Memphis) your dad?
Yes I have both in stock and no Ron isn't my dad.

My first run (3 miles)with the Universe on the road left
me wondering about the sole material. The sole doesn't
have the grip most of my shoes have, has anyone run with
these on wet roads? I land mid-foot and the shoes sure
are noisy. I hope some of the wear will lessen those
conditions.
On the plus side, their lighter than my 1,000+ miles
H Streets.
The Universes were posed to me as a 3.7 oz racer with little durability. They are supposed to last only four to five 5k's. So they have beaten the Mayflies as the least durable crapfest available.
Yet people will buy them. There's one born every minute.

The idea that they're so fragile is such horseshit.

5 5k's? There's almost no wear after 3 miles. I'm on the lighter side, I doubt after my next four 5k's the sole will be half gone. And no I don't have any connection with Mizuno, am a Nike wearer.
I've tried to give Mizuno the benefit of the doubt in the past. For me, they have always sucked.
The shoe has actually a higher durability than most other racing flats, however i wouldnt use any lightweight racing flat off road.
