These shoes are so cute but the sizing is very deceiving. They must be European sizes because the 12 I ordered is about 2 sizes too small! I am heart broken because they are perfect for what I need them for and they look well made.

I now have four pairs of these shoes - black, beige, navy and pink. I don't do well with open-toed shoes because I find they cut into the tops of my feet. These are perfect - great with trousers, equally good with a skirt or summer dress. The heel height is just right for me. I bought a similar style a couple of years ago - the maker was Fitzwell - but they fell apart by the end of the summer. These seem to be much better made and more robust. Interestingly, Vigotti produces the identical shoe (so, who actually makes them, one wonders?) and the price can vary between them and Sesto Meucci!

Even though the reviews said to order a size up, I didn't listen and got my regular size 7. They fit just fine but I can see why people might think they are tight. I had no problems except that the right shoe digs into the top part of my foot (maybe I should have listened?). These shoes are completely flat and have no arch support. I don't think they would be very good for walking large distances unless you added some insoles. Other than that, they are very easy to match with many outfits and I get so many compliments when I wear them. The best part is that they look dressier than regular flats because these have a platform.

The shoes fit great and are comfortable to stand in, BUT the strap design did not work for my feet at all. I couldn't walk down the hall without problems staying in the heel strap and forget trying to go down stairs, that was disaster. I don't know if the problem is that my heels are narrow or the strap hits at the wrong place, but I won't try a style like this again.
