I was so looking forward to receiving my flats. They are really good looking, but here comes the but... I am normally 8.5 and ordered 9, they do run small and narrow, and above all this, extremely uncomfortable which is a pity as I look very well designed. I hope  I will at some point get to break them, but I will have to think a lot to wear them again, I got 4 blisters in the front bones of my feet.  Its a pity.
