I kept these even though they're a little large. I needed shoes for a dress up event and these worked great.  I strap them up tight. My plantar fascia is really tight and my big toe stands up a bit, so a smaller size would probably bump it. They look nice. The soles don't hurt my feet. Much. My feet are terrible. Im considering a second pair for not dressing up. I have a very hard time finding shoes (as in buying and returning 60 or something pairs), so these hitting was fantastic. Other Algeria Ive tried have not worked for me yet but Im still looking... I do wish they didn't slide.
