"I saw these shoes online and just had to try them out.. I am so happy I did! I think they run pretty true to size, I'm usually a 7.5-8 and got these in an 8 and they fit great. Unlike most of my new shoes these didn't need to break in at all, I found the material around the top of the shoe (it's like a rubbery/ plastic type feel) to be a lot easier on the foot for rubbing.. These have been one of my go to pairs of shoes since I got them and unlike a lot of other reviews I've had zero issues with them falling apart, the whole shoe is pretty much like new still and I am NOT easy on my shoes either! I took them to Paris and had no issues with a long day of walking.. and wherever I wear these I get lots of compliments! I'd highly recommend these!"
