Reading the other reviews made me get the smaller size, which I now regret - I usually wear a 7 if it is wide, and got this in a 7. But, it is tight and not comfortable to wear for long - its not just the width that is tight, but also the length. BUT, because the leather is quite soft, I am hoping that it will stretch, if I can get myself to wear it more! I also got the same shoe in 7 and a half for my growing daughter - fits me nicely, but, again, on the tight side for my daughter(who is between and 7 and a half and an 8)
