I just rec'd these shoes. Order 1/2 size smaller, as with all Taryn Rose shoes (e.g., if you wear an 8, order 7.5). I wore them right out of the box. Extremely stylish for work and dress wear; professional, yet very stylish. I bought the brown with contrasting bow. Very comfortable! Although I don't like spending this much on shoes, they are well worth the price for comfort, style, and long-lasting wear. I'm now going to order many other shoes of this brand. Jackpot! (I have really bad feet with bunions, etc. Can't wear extremely high heels anymore--mid 50s--and this brand has lots of padding; made extremely well.)

These are made by an orthopedic surgeon? Really? The leather was so hard and stiff it felt like I was wearing wood. Took them right off and sent them back.
