These shoes fit to size, but, the 1st pair were too large. I ordered larger cuz reviews said they ran small. Although they're a bit snug, they fit much better and it helps to have a Velcro strap over the toes to loosen. The inset sole grabs my socks, so I have to use a shoe horn. A bit annoying since I like thin cotton socks. Otherwise, the shoes are cute, nubuck material, comfortable and sturdy.
