The shoes are incredibly cute, and that is the only thing they have going for them.  I wear a 4.5 in women's shoes, but in Pumas, I need a 5.5 because they run small.  The shoes are very uncomfortable!  I thought they would be great walking shoes for casual, non-athletic attire, but they are not comfortable for walking at all.  They are not even comfortable for general wearing.  I will keep them, though, because I am hoping that if I add shoe pads in strategic places, they will feel better.  I think they may still be a bit too big for me, so I need to add a shoe pad at the front so my foot does not slide forward and cause the lip at the front of the shoe to cut into the top of my foot or the built-in pads at the heel of the shoe to rub against my heel and cause irritation.
