I read many of the reviews about how this shoe fit, so I was a little apprehensive when I ordered my regular size. Once they arrived, I put on my regular socks and put on the shoe ... WOW ... they fit and felt great. I finished dressing and went out the door feeling great because they looked so good ... and 3 hours later, still feeling great. The next day I was to go out of town up into Colorado where I knew it was colder than my home, so I put them on and took no other shoes for my 2 day trip ... they felt great both days and I got lots of compliments about how they looked on my feet. I just wish they had my size in the brown as well.
