I bought these in the yellow...but definitely order UP a size. I ordered a 41 because I was paying attention to the American sizes, and it said 11, even though I often buy a 42 in Euro sizing. Definitely too small...the toe squishing mentioned by another review could be because it's too small. There definitely IS a bit of a squish/pinch even now that I have the correct size, but it's minimal, and pretty similar to any other "peek toe" type shoe. I expect that that will go away with a few more wears. Overall, given my back and ankle problems, the fact that I could walk several blocks in these with no problems lets me heartily endorse them! I have them in the yellow, and it's a bright POP of gold.
