I normally wear a 7W or 7.5 M to accommodate the need for width and ordered the Kadee in size 8M expecting it would be a bit large and I would heat it up to shrink it to the perfect size. This was not necessary. The 8 fits in length and width,no adjustments needed.
My disappointment was that the shoe has no arch support. Previous reviewers commented on the shoe working fine for plantar fasciatis , but that requires arch support. My pain did not go away while wearing the shoes and actually got worse.. Disappointing because they are cute and the cut-outs are great for hot weather.
