These open toe perforated booties are more comfortable for me than they may appear to the casual observer. I wear high heels frequently. And the last on this boot seems to match more with the high arch that I have. I usually wear a size 8.0 M, so I purchased the size 8 and the length on these is true to size. However the overall width runs wide. I tried several pairs of the size 8 and some were so wide that my foot shifted too much even with bare feet.  The zipper in the heel of this boot does not pinch or force my foot forward.  This boot may not be for most people, but I it's a good fit for me plus a cool look for the money.  And, I like the platform sole because it keeps my toes off the ground and prevents my sole from feeling the typical  debris underfoot. It's not real leather so that's a major reason for the low cost.
