These shoes are well made and true to size.  Great transition shoe...not a loafer and not a true ballet.  Very flattering shoe for all ages and dress types (casual or dressy).  The sorbet is especially a great color..like a rose gold...not pink or peach or gold.  Very versatile.  Comfortable right out of the box and like a previous reviewer, I have a stubborn toe that seems to never be happy but this shoe seems to work.  Going back for another and would recommend.
