I wear a size 6.5, I got a size 7 and it was perfect. I loved how the shoes looked and felt on my feet. My only complaint is that they didn't last very long. I bought them for a show I was in and after 2 weeks there were holes in the toes and the sole on the ball of my foot was worn down in a couple places. 2 weeks seemed like a really short life for a brand new pair of jazz shoes.
