I agree with other reviewers who said these sizes run small, which is actually very fortunate for me, since I have small "expensive" feet when it comes to buying men's size footware. I ordered the smallest size, 7, since the L.L. Bean slippers of many years were a 7, and had given up the ghost (and they fit me perfectly when I bought them.) Upon opening these goods and trying them on, I was surprised to have a hard time getting them on, even with a steel shoe horn. I was a hare's breath (sic) away from exchanging them,  when I suspected that the soft leather will stretch rather quickly. And so it has. I can now wear them with heavy socks (snugly) and I sense they are continuing to stretch, until they become relatively loose on my foot. If you have never worn this style, get a pair one size larger than your leather street shoes, and be prepared to exchange them if they are not a perfect fit. The problem is that one cannot do a break-in period without making them unacceptable as returns.

But for the size, I would have given it five stars.
