I have been looking for a tan suede pump for over a year now, so I was thrilled to find this. I read reviews of this shoe on various websites, and they all said it was either "true to size" or "1/2 size too big." Only here have I seen any reviewers saying it's 1/2 size too small. I have been noticing that lately a lot of shoes seem to be running 1/2 size too big, so I ordered it in 6 instead of my usual 6.5, especially since the heel is so high.  I figured I needed a snug fit. The length is fine, but the toe box feels just a wee bit crowded. If I had gone w/ a 6.5, I think the heel would slip off.  However, the front is a little short, meaning there is a little toe cleavage on all toes (mostly at the big toe), and I do not have long toes. In fact, some might consider them on the stubby side.  So, that is why I left off one star--beautiful shoe with a nicely sculpted heel, but the toe box is tight and short. Since the heel can vary by size, in case anyone is wondering (as I was), the size 6 measures exactly 4" at the back of the heel.
