I really liked these shoes when they arrived! Just the color I wanted from a well known company. But, my usual size 7.5 just didn't fit. Too short in the length from toe to heel and the elastic around the heel really cut into my foot. I was afraid my big toe would eventually pop through the stitching in the front. Not sure going up to an 8 would have made a difference. So, I'm sending them back. I guess if anyone plans to order these, maybe go up a half size from what you normally wear.
