These are a beautiful pair of shoes perfect for business or casual wear because of the not too tall heel, but they were very tight in the toes. I wear a 7.5 and purchased a 7.5 and the length was fine, just very tight. I wore them for several hours and had a lot of discomfort in my toes, but had I sized up they would have slid up and down. Overall it was a great buy! I paid have the price here vs. the price at Macy's.
