Fit Review! Lululemon Cityverse Perforated Sneaker

Hope everyone who celebrated had a Happy Mother's Day weekend! I totally forgot because my parents came last weekend and we did all the celebrating then. 😅 I finally got around to try Lululemon's Perforated Sneaker. I've been looking for a white pair of sneakers for a while. Let's find out if these are keepers.

For reference I typically wear size 5.5 in sneakers including Allbirds, Lululemon, and On Running.

This color combo of Golden Sand, Black and White really caught my eye. It makes the plain white sneaker visually interesting. The white is very white, not going to lie, it crossed my mind as to how I would even be able to keep these clean since the care instructions say to spot clean only. This particular pair comes with an extra set of black laces to change up the look.

The out sole has small cups for better traction. I haven't tested these out in the rain so I can't say for sure how these would perform. Atlanta is in a severe draught right now. We're also on a burn ban. 😳

Visually, I think these sneakers look amazing. So the big question is, how do they fit and feel?

I have slightly wide feet and these fit fine. Length wise, I have s little extra wiggle room in the back. The collar lining comes up a little bit high for me on the sides, right near the ankle bone.

They feel a little stiff right out of the box, I would have to break these in to soften them up. These are not made of leather. Lululemon calls it leather-alternative. I would love to know exactly what that means, but the website does not go into anymore detail, much to my dismay.

I walked around my house with these on. They feel heavier than I expected on my feet. The back of the sneakers would slip a bit with each step. Despite having high hopes for these, I ended up returning them.
