Do the other reviewers not realize that leather stretches? After wearing these shoes around the house for ~1 hr, the "narrow toe box" widened considerably. If I had sized up in width, the shoes would have ended up too big. I ordered tts, 7N, and didn't find them too big or too small.edit - after wearing these for about a week, I've been a little frustrated with how much the heel scuffs. I'd be nice if these shoes had a non-scuff base. For the discounted price I got these at, I can't really complain, but I wanted to make a note of this issue.9 months edit - After about 9 months of wearing these ~2 days/week, the scuffing problem has gone away... because the heel has completely worn away (see photo). I've never had a shoe that I wear this infrequently wear out so quickly. I changed my original rating of 4 stars to reflect this.Recently, I have been on the hunt for a nice pair of “smoking” loafers, and these shoes fit the bill. I consider the price of these flats a real bargain since they’re made of soft leather uppers and non-skid synthetic soles. The fit is true to size and the color is consistent with the image used for the ad. There's only one downfall: there isn’t much arch support, but that isn’t a problem for me. Classic, comfortable, and versatile is the best way to describe these shoes. BTW, I paid $24.99.a little disappointed. I have purchased these shoes before when they were available from the walking cradle store. I was so excited when I seen them on ebay. but when I got them they were not as wide as they should be. I took them to a shoe repair place and had them stretched so I could wear them. I still have a little trouble wearing them all day.These shoes are lovely. I want to wear them! But, either the pair that I received were incorrectly sized or they run small. I have two other pairs of Walking Cradles in the same size that fit perfectly. So, I was surprised that these were both too narrow and too short. I am disappointed because they are otherwise perfect.The foot bed is comfortable, but on the upper side of my foot its painful. They were fine for about an hour or so. I'm hoping I can get them stretched.these run large, I purchased the same size as I always buy and they were much to big, I will have to return themThese are nice flat with the wide toe box I needed, but they are supportive and the characterization of "walking cradles" is really a misnomer. These shoes really don't have much of ant cushioning in the sole. The shoes are really very basic, not ugly, but basic and, therefore, very expensive for what they are.Product was way to small and hurt my feet
