This shoe is an 81/2 I wanted to wear for  my daughters wedding, they were the most uncomfortable shoes, I felt like Cinderalla's Step sister trying to keep the glass slipper on. The shoe was hard very tight around the toes and had no padding on the bottom. They definately run small. It fit perfect with the dress I wore but I had to settle for another pair of shoes bah humbug!!!! Very unhappy.....with purchase
