main difference between training shoes and running shoes is that training shoes have a bigger toe box, mainly to help with side-to-side movements, whereas running shoes are strictly for forward movement, ie running.
i got my true size (size 10) with this shoe in hope to break 'em in and let them loosen up after a while. i dont have the widest feet but they're not narrow either.
at first they were really tight and snug. it wasnt tight length or width wise, it was tight on top of the toes. this shoe has a low "ceiling", probably made so your feet feel secure like a glove. (which they do)
after the first day of wearing them, they dont feel tight anymore, just perfect. at least for me.
