Ok I read the other reviews and felt compelled to write one as I bought this exact shoe and have had it for about seven years now. The original pair I bought was from Nordstrom. Yes, these shoes bought from Amazon are very large. One number more in any case. So I sent them back and exchanged for a size 14 as they weren't the usual 14's. The size 14 is almost identical to the size 15 I bought 7 years ago. They fit perfectly. So the quality of the show looks the same as the originals I bought. I'm crossing my fingers because over time they work just as well as other Brunomalias I own. I love these shoes. I will write a follow-up review of the performance of these Brunomaglis.
