The shoes were way too small and I didn't read the reviews before buying so I didn't know to size up.  Sigh.  Live and learn!  I also didn't like how flexible the sole was, as it moved strangely when my heel hit the floor.  I really wanted to like these shoes because they looked great on, but I couldn't deal with the overly flexible sole and I didn't think changing the shoe size would have made a difference in that respect.
