"I was a little nervous when I ordered these shoes because I normally wear 13's but I had heard they run big so I went ahead and purchased the 12's. They were slightly tight when I first tried them on but after one night of wear they stretched out fit perfectly! I would definitely suggest sizing down at let a 1/2 size unless you have a very wide foot as the 13's I tried on in store were quite long. As for the look the dark brown leather with lighter sole was exactly the look I wanted. I even received multiple comments on they from my friends the first time I wore them. Shipping was great as always as I received them 3 days earlier than expected. Thanks DSW!!!"
