They need 1/2 sizes. I ordered my usual size and they were ENORMOUS. I couldn't take 3 steps without falling out of them. We're talking toe cleavage and falling out of them. They are also extremely wide. Their quality controls leave much to be desired.  The quality seems ok but one never knows until you wear them. I ordered a size down and wow, they are VERY snug. I am not sure I will keep the second pair either. I put them sole to sole and the size just one size up is just over 1/4&#34; longer. That seems like a LOT.<br /><br />Why can't anyone make a decent, cute shoe for women that isn't some form of torture to wear or looks like the orthopedic shoes my grandmother loved?<br /><br />Oh. forget it, these are killing my feet, the second pair has to go back too. I can't help but wonder if it's now impossible to buy decent shoes because everything is third party contracted to sweatshops in mainland China and Bangladesh.
