Shoe size may vary from manufacturer to manufacturer. Fit is tested using size 8-8.5 shoe. Recommendations to order smaller or larger shoe will be visible on description (e.g., "runs narrow; order 1/2 size up.")
HOW TO MEASURE SHOE SIZE LENGTH: Place ruler on the ground, perpendicular to the wall, so the '0' is against the wall. In bare feet, step on the ruler, with the back of your heel against the wall. The measurement taken at the longest part of your foot determines your shoe size.
HOW TO MEASURE SHOE SIZE WIDTH: With the ruler in the same position, step with your bare foot onto the ruler - this time with the outside of your foot touching the wall. The measurement taken at the widest part of your foot determines your shoe width.
HOW TO MEASURE HEEL HEIGHT: We measure from a size 8-8.5 shoe and will vary slightly depending on the size you order. The heel is measured up the center back of the heel to where it meets the sole. All measurements are approximate and rounded down to the nearest quarter inch.

Who knew a rhinestone-covered sweatsuit could be this fun? I got it in black and wore it on New Year’s Eve with my AKIRA wanna-be-YSL rhinestone-covered thigh-high cone-shaped boots (bought a year ago) & everywhere I went I was being stopped by people taking pix of me, asking me where I got “my outfit”.
Bought the set and I'm so in love with this. Looks even better in person. Loving the new Akira, they are bringing out bigger sizes and longer bottoms. I'm small from waist down and bigger up top. I got a small in the pants, they do have a lil stretch and they are about 31-32 in length. I got a large in the jacket, I could have gotten away with a medium, but because im not 21yrs old anymore I didn't want too
much of a rise since it is cropped. With this outfit I'm hoping I don't lose or gain any weight, I want to wear this forever.
