I really wanted to love this and was going to wear them as soon as I got them but the toe box, as other reviews mentioned, ia very narrow (and Im pettite with small, slim feet). So I was surprised. It almost fit but it hurt a bit on the back ankle part and on the toe part so Id say size half up your usual. The rest seemed comfortable and padded. I returned and Im gonna try to go half size up. Right price at $17.99
