This is not a comfortable shoe, but its proportions and construction are very attractive. Since I wear size 5, the pitch is very steep for me, and therefore makes walking for longer periods of time a painful prospect. Size down with this shoe, because your foot will slide into the toebox. If you find that there is still some space at the heel when you walk, pack the toebox with tissue paper. If your foot has a lot of back-and-forth wiggle room, the shoe has a tendency to slide on and off as you walk in them. The sides are also cut low, so those with wider feet may have a problem.
