Somewhat small for an 11.5 womens shoe.  This shoe is more for style and looks when you're out and about running errands.  Would not recommend this shoe for those who are new to exercise.  I started my weight loss program in December and walked a couple of miles in these shoes.  Not enough support for my weight.  Ordered a pair of Nikes that work great for my exercise program.  Also need a shoehorn as it is difficult to pull up the heel portion in my left shoe.
