These are man made materials and won't stretch out so be sure and size up at least a half size.  I usually wear 9 1/2 N and I ordered 10N and they are none too big.  A full size bigger may have been too clunky and required socks.  Where can you find narrow widths in a dance shoe at this price.  These are just the ticket to get started dancing or for occasional performances.  I liked the tan.  My feet don't look as big as they would in black patent.
