It's true, theses sizes do run a little big. I'm usually a 7.5, but I ordered a 7 and they fit well, pretty roomy. The purple is fantastic.
I am afraid though, that the sole and the upper may separate. I've worn them for about a month and the cloth/rubber seam is starting to come apart.
Also, I've had to get used to unbuckling AND untying shoes to get them off. Nice shoes though.

HORRIBLY MADE! These really started to fall apart after a month, and after two months of wear I threw them out. All that's holding them together is cheap glue.  I really liked them while they lasted by holy cow they didn't last.
