So the reviews seemed to point that these flats run small. I usually have a problem with flats being too big and therefore hard to walk in, so I went with my usual size 8. When the shoes arrived, I thought they were cute, but the suede already showed how easily scuffed it is. I guess that's not particular to this shoe, but something to think about. They are definitely well made and look nice, but the 8 was too big on me. My heels slipped out when I walked. So I exchanged for a 7.5 and those were way too tight. Instead of trying to add an insert to the 8 or stretch the 7.5, I ended up sending both back. I wouldn't say I'm too disappointed since I didn't love them. I got them in black, by the way. I wish that there were more neutral color choices. I don't like the jewel toned options or the tan color.
