As above, they were quite small. Tight enough to feel uncomfortable after a few hours, and a little tight to do without a shoehorn. The skin proved surprisingly tough, not yielding much. I've only worn them twice so they can stretch. I would have sent them back but I wore them expecting that they would give a bit. I still have two pairs of Aquatalia shoes in this size that fit me. Too bad. I will probably buy the brand again but only on the site itself.
