text: July 22th: I received the shoes size 9 today but my right toes touched the front and the left toes struggled with the tightness! I set up to return right away.<br />This is my 1st Alegria shoes! I use average 9.5 shoe size and apparently these run small! I am glad Amazon to returns with no charge!<br /><br />I will write a new post after receiving one size up shoes.
