These sneakers are very chic and comfortable, however, they run large. Size 8 of these sneakers fit like 9! I was not able to exchange them for a smaller size as I was outside USA, and hence I had to use an insole to adapt them to a smaller size. One other thing, it itches on my right big toe and I had to use a silicone pad to stop the friction, but I cannot tell for sure if this happens because of the materials of the sneakers or because of the bunion I suffer on that toe...I still, however, recommend buying these sneakers; just make sure to pick up the right size ;)
