I bought these shoes solely on the reviews of others. They look great and I was so happt to get them until about 30 minutes later. The literally stung the bottoms of my feet and I was in shoe hell for the rest of the time I was in them. So, I thought maybe I had a size too small since I was not used to the Euro sizing or something. Well those had lots od room, but again I was stinging on the bottom and where my arch was located, so maybe my feet are too flat. I am not not too sure what the problem is for me, but they may work for you.
