I was a little concerned that these shoes would cut into the tops of my toes because I've had the problem before with other mary jane styles, but they don't.  These shoes are very comfortable and I think they're even cuter in person than in the photo.  As another reviewer stated, there was no break in time needed; comfortable right out of the box.  I normally wear a size 7, which is what I ordered, and the sizing is also very good; not too much room in the toe box, but my toes aren't squished either.
