These were cute as can be right out of the box:  I do vegan shoes and was so excited to see such cute flats out of man-made materials and they are the perfect tangerine/orange that matches a new Spring bag I purchased last month.

Then I put them on.  Oh dear.

I am usually a perfect 8.5.  Not for these shoes.  They are very short in the toes, even though it is a very rounded toe.  The top of my big toes are truly pinched.  I think that part of the problem is that they are not leather, so they do not "give" like leather and the toe bed is not deep enough.

I can tell by the fit of the rest of the shoe that going up a size will make it too large in the heel and instep.

I have decided to keep these shoes, even though I am certain I will regret the decision if I ever have to do much walking in them because I love the color and the cute style (and let's not forget the bag...)

Besides, the return postage (added to the initial postage) will actually add up to the cost of the shoes.
