I ordered the Black Leather shoe in a 8 1/2. Firstly, I am a 9 medium and on rare occasions can go down  a half size (I  ordered the 8 1/2 because the 9 was sold out). The 8 1/2 was very small and I doubt a 9 would fit me. I'll re ordered a 9 1/2 size.  But the price has almost doubled and on principle I am not going to pay more than $50 for the shoe. Finally, the shoe seems super comfortable. I'll be looking out for more Naya shoes on Amazon.com
