text: I love these BUT they are really small I normally wear a size 8 and very rarely a size 8  1/2 I saw that people posted that these run a bit small so I got the 9 people for the most part are right the big toe is tight and the heel is kind of painful luckily I own a shoe stretcher and popped that right in and after one hour of putting the stretcher on size 9 (which fit snug according to the sizing of the stretcher)  they feel a lot better so for the next week I will be breaking these in by using stretcher and short periods of wear time I want to make these my favorite shoes due to how SUPER CUTE they are!! I will post an update in a couple of weeks
