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.

These shoes are perfect. I took a star off because of the back of the shoe at the top pinches. It’s due to the plastic edge. So I cut the rest of the plastic even and put clear tape over it. Not ideal but the best I could come up. My feet are narrow and I’m normally a 9 so I purchased the 9. Fits great and the padding inside make this shoe very comfortable. I would recommend this shoe
These shows are just as cute as the picture and they are super comfortable, which is my main concern. Shipping was fast and packaging was great. The only issue I have is the back part that goes over the heel needs some kind of cushion as it was irritating my ankle and I had to buy some pads to make it better. Other than that... super comfortable... wore them all day.
Super cute shoes, but sizing is horrible. Im a 6.5 and a friend who wears size 8 ended up fitting them perfectly. Thats how big they were.
I hope there will be a restock because I bought these a while back and love them! The heel height is great and sexy without being too tall to walk comfortable most of the day and they match with everything! It has built in cushion which I appreciate. I have gained weight and need a half size bigger now but they are sold out in 8 so please restock. I gave 4 stars because they do fog up on you so they need a few more vent holes near the toes or maybe a soft bottom that will absorb some of that. Also they run slightly small maybe a half size small.
I just got my shoes today and absolutely Love Love Love Love Love these heels!!!! Comfortable is not the word. I can literally walk in them all day!! I’m a 7 but i ordered a 7 1/2 and they fit perfect. I wish you had them in black. Will definitely purchase again!!!
