I bought a pair of these shoes after reading the reviews. I wanted something that would be comfortable, casual, and easy to slip on and off. I ordered the same size shoe I normally wear in a oxford style lace up. The shoe is very comfortable and looks nice (very much like the pictures). The only complaint I have is that unless I wear thicker socks, the shoe is actually almost too loose on my foot. As I walk the back of the heel wants to slip down, unless I wear a thicker sock.
It is so close that I know going down a size (because they have no half sizes at my size), would most likely make it too tight. So, I have decided to just live with it because they are nice comfortable shoes.
