I purchased the Pearly by Joan & David last summer for all round pump (black patent leather). What a waste of $99.00. The do run about a half size large in length. But they pinch in the toe box, and the heel slips off with every step. Therefore, they sit in a box and are not worn, I would have returned them but I wore them to work and could not bring myself to return something I had worn. I have tried several times to adjust the fit with pads, but nothing helps.
