I always buy Uggs in size 9 when Im an 8.5 in everything else. Without socks, these slip off my heels when I walk, but they are very comfy, with and without socks. I expected the cream to be white-ish based on the pics, but theres a lot of yellow in there, so much so I thought Id received the wrong color, but no. Would have bought a different color if Id known, but not worth the hassle of exchanging.
