"I am 5'5 and weigh an average 130 lbs. I always wear a size 8 in almost all types of shoes, and never have issues with sizing. I purchased these online and they were EXTREMELY tight. The fabric appears to be stretchy but is not. I could barely zip them up half way. Also the material appears to be low quality. I'm sure they were painted, but it was poorly done and does not look even remotely like real leather. I'd definitely avoid unless you can try them on in person."
