I wear size 8.5 or 9, depending, I like to order flats in the 8.5.  I ordered these in the 8.5 and they are a perfect fit -- 9 would have been too big.  I have a couple Indian Girl costumes for role play with the hubs so I bought these shoes because I felt they'd be a perfect compliment to the costumes. I was correct -- these shoes are cute, they fit and they serve the purpose for which I ordered them.  They arrived quick and, they were packaged very nice.  These sandals are a keeper!
