The shoe is very nice with lots of class.  Please note if you have narrow feet the shoe will look good on you.  es my feet border on the narrow to average width size.  Normally,  I get a 7 in this type of shoe.  Read the other reviews that said it runs small.  (This is one of the reasons I appreciate the review portion of the Amazon website.)  I took the other reviewers' words of caution to heart and ordered an 8.  It fits like a glove!  Very comfortable to walk in.  If you have high arches avoid these.
