I ordered a size 39 which the sizing chart says is equivalent to a size 8.  The shoes came and were way too big -- one or two full sizes.  But when I returned the shoes, I have to pay postage because it was my fault -- which is not right.  It was the company's fault because the sizing chart is wrong.  I love these shoes, but be careful of the sizing.  Order at least one size smaller than is stated.
