I usually wear an 8.5 regular or 8 Wide, and this 8W fits perfectly. I may use arch inserts, but this shoe fits very well at the heel, which is INCREDIBLY hard to find these days. It's not too high and looks very classy, sorta 60's even. Highly recommended. (I would note, though, that all their Soft Style shoes don't fit the same, so don't count on that aspect.)
