text: Received these shoes within three days of order.  Put them on immediately.  They were wonderfully comfortable from the moment they were on my feet.  They definitely run true to my 8.5 (M) size!  They are very stylish from front, back and sides-------- and they make one's feet look small. The heels are slim from the back view and the height of the heel is perfect for walking.  Next Spring I intend to purchase a pair in navy and another in white.
