I was really afraid two things with these shoes; the sizing and the heal height (I have searched for years for a shoe that adds a little height but not to much to no avail). I normally wear a size 7, however I was conflicted on what size to really order from all of the reviews saying there are sizing issues. I decided to go up a size and order a 38. When the shoes arrived I was stunned how cute they are and how comfortable they are. To be honest, I was thinking that they would be the typical shoe that would feel tolerable at first but then throughout the day start to kill my feet, however they in fact got MORE comfortable as I wore them. The first day I had them I wore them all day, I walked my dogs in them, ran errands in them and they where still comfortable! These shoes really are the most amazing shoes I have ever purchased. The sizing is off one size in my opinion but the 38 fit my size 7 feet perfectly. I also LOVE LOVE the width of the shoes as they don't pinch my toes like most shoes do and the heel height is perfect. These really are the most perfect shoes I have ever found and I plan on ordering more. For those of you with wider to normal feet these shoes are amazing.
