I ordered two sizes and kept my usual size 6. Although my feet tends towards the wider side, there's plenty of room in M-width and in the toe box. I bought this shoe for a trip to Europe - I am leaving in 2 weeks and I know that I will have 'happy feet' during those hours long walking tours. I ordered the black. It's a good looking shoe and I think I might be able to wear for every occasion including dinners out. I was a bit reluctant to buy because it's expensive, but I think it's going to be the perfect shoe for my trip and the seasons ahead. In the end, worth every hard earned dollar!
I have plantar fasciitis and I love these shoes. My orthotics fit in well by going up a half size. The heel is good support. The Valentina style looks more dressed up, but the arch support and cushioning are better in these.
