These boots are absolutely adorable!  I'm grateful for the reviews because as customers have said, they run quite small.  I am a true size 7, and I NEVER wear a 7.5, but I ordered these a 1/2 size larger as suggested and they fit me perfectly, and even still a wee bit snug but not uncomfortable.  That being said....if you have a slightly wider foot (I'm a medium), these boots will still be a bit tight if you order a 1/2 size larger.  I wore them barefoot and they are very comfortable.  I may just get another pair.  :)  I'm sorry these got bad reviews because of the sizing issue, because they really are very nice real LEATHER boots for the price.
