These flats were instant comfort out of the box, soft leather, enough room in the toe box, and the elastic on the surface was also comfortable, not pintching. I ordered size 37, and i'm between a 6.5 to 7, depending on the cut/brand. The 37 fits greats. Didn't end up keeping them though, because i have what what wide feet, and these made them look wider. I bet they'd look great on slim footed ladies.
