I wear a size 8.5, ordered the 8.5 and they fit great. The toe box is not restrictive at all. Wore them for my first ballroom dance class and they were surprisingly comfortable! Who knew dance heels could be more comfortable than regular heels? The clasp takes a bit of getting used to  you hook the already fastened buckle onto a metal clip  but its actually more convenient than haaving to buckle the strap every time. Im happy with the quality for the price (less than $40).
