Trust all the reviews that say these run a full size smaller than marked!

Yes, they're tight in the toes when you first wear them. Yes, you should order a size up from your half-size. But by the 2nd or 3rd wearing they have loosened up nicely in the toe and are perfectly comfortable. Love them!

Toe box so small that I will need to order at least a size up from normal...does the suede stretch or something? What if it does and I end up with Bozo the clown shoes?

Based on the reviews, I ordered these in a size up, and had to exchange them for my regular size 9. I think your normal size works if you have an average-to-narrow-sized foot, through the ball and toe area. There are some seams in the toe area of this shoe that tend to rub, but that goes away after you wear them a few times and break them in. Very cute shoe!

The sneaker runs a full size small. I wear an 8.5 US in woman's sizing and I ordered a 9. It was too small, and there are no 1/2 sizes. I am hesitant to order a 10. The seams on the toe hurt my foot. These are cute, but I am returning.

Very narrow fit. Had to return. For what it's worth, my usual size is 9M - not wide (have never had to purchase a wide shoe). Quality seemed good though.

Perfect for narrow feet. I wear 9 1/2 and I found the size 10 fit worse in the toe bed than size 9. They are now my no socks, three season shoe. If you have wide feet, it does not matter what size shoe you order, these will not fit you!

Super cute for super narrow feet. I almost always wear a size 6. The size 7 in these were too small.

I love these shoes, and I'm going to keep them because I love them so much, but they are a weird fit. I don't think I could ever wear these with socks. They are very low profile, so they fit tight - a bigger size doesn't help, because they just get longer, not bigger. They're so tight though, that I don't think they can rub, so that's good. I plan on wearing them in the summer without socks, and if you're okay with a tight fit, they're really great looking shoes; but I really don't see how they could be worn with socks. Other than the tightness, they're very comfortable. They have a nicely cushioned sole. I'm a 9 1/2 and had to get the 9. The ten was just long, like a clown shoe.

I normally wear a size 9, but I ordered a full size up based on the other reviews. The 10 fits with a bit of length to spare in the toe area, but this shoe is very narrow through the toes, so the seams on the uppers rub my pinky toe on both shoes. They are very cute on (even in a size 10!), so I'm going to wear them around the house for a couple of days and see if they stretch out a bit. These shoes are definitely not for people who have wide feet and chunky toes!

The shoes were true to size and comfortable. The shoes were nicely packed when they arrived.

This is a very cute shoe, and the color matched my dress perfectly. I didn't keep the shoe because it was very wide and the straps bulged out on the side. If you have a wider foot, this may be the perfect fit!

These shoes are absolutely perfect with the outfit I purchased them for. The right color, the right heel height for me. Unfortunately, they are incredibly uncomfortable. The straps cut into my feet everywhere. As I write this, I am actually breaking the shoes in: I have my feet wrapped in bandages and am wearing the shoes around the house. Hopefully they'll soften up and I can wear them without the bandages a week from now. If I didn't need purple shoes I would never consider these, but vanity prevails and I'm hoping they'll work out.
