I have several pair of PRIVO shoes and was excited to find this pair that would work well with dressier looks.  My other PRIVOs have been excellent quality and the most comfortable shoes I own.  They've been on several trips to DisneyWorld, New York City, and are my favorite shoes for my teaching job.  I have always worn a size 9 in this brand, but this style ran a bit short.  Only wore them on the carpet in my bedroom, but they seemed like they would be just as comfortable as my other PRIVOs.  Will reorder a larger size.  4 stars because of the difference in sizing from other pairs.
