These shoes are gorgeous — and surprisingly comfortable! I'm typically between a 7 and 7.5, and I usually go with 7.5 for boots and closed-toe styles. I initially ordered a 7 based on reviews (some mentioned they run large, especially in other colors), but for me, the 7 felt almost too exact.
I could tell that if my feet slid forward at all, my toes would be uncomfortably close to the edge. I exchanged them for the 7.5, and I’m much happier. They now fit more like they do in the ad photos — with a little bit of breathing room. I'd rather add an insole to help keep my feet in place than risk my toes falling out.
If you're between sizes like me, I’d recommend going with the half size up.
