I have two other pairs in this style in a size 4 and they fit fine. So, I ordered a 4 in charcoal and they stretched out after wearing them for a half hour and got too baggy.

An elf or a pixie? I would have given a max five overall but the sole is cut a little generously around the toe and the leather is very flexible - part of the comfort - but I suspect that over a very short time the toe will mold to my feet and the very end will curl up making visible the sole of the shoe and making the shoe ready for an elf or a pixie. It means permanent black polish to avoid the nasty white edge being the first thing you see.
