"I got these a half size larger than normal just so I'd have more room. As I wear them, they stretch out a little, so I'd probably have been fine with my standard size. They are a tad narrow around the base of the toes, at the balls of the feet.
The material is shiny -- it looked more matte in the picture. The quality looks very good.
They are pretty comfortable and I love that I can wear them with jeans as well as skirts."
