I noted other reviews claimed these shoes ran large... I am between half-sizes (can wear either a 9.5 or a 10 comfortably) so I went with the 9.5.  BIG MISTAKE!  They are extremely tight, pinch basically all around my foot, including my toes.  I can't stand to wear them!<br /><br />That said, there are other aspects of the shoe that are marvelous for the price (I paid $16).  The footbed is very soft and comfortable, and the sole at the toe has good traction. The heel is a bit slippy, so just keep your weight forward.<br /><br />The covering on the shoe is also somewhat cheap, and has slight wrinkling/strain along the sides and at the toe.  Definitely do not pay more than $20 for these, but at a discount, they are a decent  value.
