At last...got a pair of shoes Im in love with! I bought these same shoes first in size 9 thinking being i normally wear 8.5-9 in sneakers a size 9 outta be perfect. Wrong! I had to return them and purchase this style again in 9.5. Granted now at first i was NOT happy having to go to a bigger size thank you - as women generally dream of smaller size clothes and of shoes but i really liked the dang shoes. It was my toes that insisted i go up a size and boy i am so glad i did because these babies fit and feel lika dream! A big thanks to the seller too for allowing my first purchase to be returned for free! I am one happy customer with very happy feet!
