I was nervous to order these shoes because some reviews said that they ran big, but I took the chance and got them anyway. I'm really disappointed with them. The shoes I received are too SMALL. I wear a size 9 shoe and these fit like a size 8. My toes were squished so bad that I couldn't wear them for more than a minute. If I tried to wear them for any longer, I'm pretty sure the material of the shoe would have made my toes bleed. Fortunately, my sister wears a size 8 and said she would take them; however, she said she can't wear them for long because the material of the shoe rubs which causes discomfort.
