text: First, let me tell you I am almost always a size 7, except in tennis shoes, I am a 7.5. I have never had a size 8 shoe ever. I have 2 other styles of crocs that are size 7, fit fine. I ordered the 7 in this style and was WAY to short. So I got the 8. My feet swim a bit in the shoe, but do not slip off, so I'm keeping them, I LOVE the way they look.
