"Love these! Doc sizing can be troublesome so I hope this helps...99% of the time I wear an 8 (always 7 in heels). I bought these in a US 7 (UK 5) and seriously worried they would be too small (due to US size 8 being sold out) until I realized that the HUGH style is a unisex one, therefore the Doc tendency of running large (therefore go down a size) rings true. I will most certainly be able to wear these with tights and cute socks comfortably :-) Couldn't be happier. I'm off to make mischief in my velvet Docs!"
