I bought these shoes in the nude color and the black with pink toe color. I am usually a size 7 1/2 or 8 and I ordered 8 in both colors. The nude color fits well with some heel inserts and the black pair fits perfectly as is. The quality seems so much better than some of the other much more expensive shoes. They both looked brand new, which I have had problems with in the past with other shoes. They have a little padding and feel pretty stable. The heel is high though, so I would recommend these for experienced heel wearers. I am definitely going to be keeping both pairs. I am so happy I got such a good deal on them also, the nude pair were $20 and the black and pink were $16. I am a very satisfied customer!
