Small review of a web shop I tried

Gilbertpaill

Good packaging and a small storage bag are also nice touches for accessories. Each material has advantages and disadvantages depending on season and activity. Sharing real world usage stories is often more helpful than any advertisement. Very thin fabric may be fine for summer but often looks cheap and becomes see through. I try to balance my budget between basic everyday items and a few special pieces. I try to look for real photos of the insoles and soles, not only the outside of the shoe.  

If anyone is interested in real user experiences, I sometimes write short notes about the shops I test.
You can find one of the pages here:

Even big and famous brands sometimes send generic replies that are not very helpful. I also check if the store explains how to measure PD and frame size clearly. If buyers say the item runs small or large, I always adjust my choice accordingly. For light summer tops I keep to my normal size to avoid a baggy look.  

Hope this helps someone.
