I love clarks and this price was great! I read all the reviews and was prepared to deal with the heel, so I ordered a size 8.5 (i normally wear 9). The problem is my one foot is a half size smaller than the other, the 8.5s did not work for me due to the smaller foot, and the heel was REALLY bad so i ordered a size 8. The right is super tight but I hope to stretch out, the left fits perfect. If you are a lazy walker you won't like this shoe because your heel will slip out. You have to actively keep the heel on, but its really not that big of a deal to me, it doesn't happen very often unless you don't really activate all the muscles you should be using when you walk. These shoes are REALLY cute, the toes and forefoot are fairly tight, and I have narrow feet. They should remake this shoe to fix the heel, but it is something I can deal with. Happy Clark's customer :-)
