I read the reviews that said these ran large, so I ordered them as an 8 instead of the 9 since I am an 8 1/2.
I worked and worked and did finally get my foot in, but it was uncomfortable and there was no way I would make that fight every day.
I was so bombed out but thankfully Amazon has a great return policy. It helps for those of us in rural areas. For things like shoes, there are not many choices. My closest shoe store is thirty miles away. Thank you Amazon.
