I get no fewer than 20 compliments a day when I wear these shoes! They seem quite true to size. The only cons are that one of the black dots is faded on the side of one of the shoes, which I hope does not foreshadow what will happen with years of wear (I've worn them only twice so far), and certainly since the material is canvas - with lots of exposed white - I do anticipate they will soil easily. I just plan to wear them carefully. My feet did not hurt after an entire day running around the office, which is rare. And the price was more than worth it!!!
