I'm a nurse and I bought 3 pairs to wear as nursing shoes to work, i looovvve them, very comfortable and beautiful, got lots of comments from co-workers whom also bought them for work because of my purchase
This is my favorite pair of shoes! I wear them for everything, all day long! They do run small. I usually wear a 9 and I got a size 8. I wear them without socks. Plenty of compliments on them, even got friends to order these after seeing mine.
I ordered my normal size but they gap open on outside so appears sloppy, needs elastic V on both sides of shoe for better fit.
They came in a regular she box with insets to keep the shoes in their proper shape. I normally wear 7.5 US which is what I ordered and they fit perfectly. They don’t rub on my heels, no too loose, not too tight. There isn’t much arch support (I have a high arch) but they are comfortable. I have a high instep and I typically do not wear shoes that cover my instep but these stretch nicely over it and don’t put a lot of pressure like some shoes do, quite comfy in that area. The soles are plastic feeling, I slip and slide when out in our deck (trex) but on our rugs, wood, tiled and linoleum floors, no sliding at all. These are super light weight. I love them.
