I recently bought 4 pairs of shoes for my daughter, including another pair of boots. All of them were size 5.5 and they all fit with some extra 'growing' room. This, however, is way too small. Even though it's sz. 5.5, her toes are curled up in the front and I had to return it. Other then the size issue, the boots are beautiful and well made. It's a shame it didn't fit!
