I have a wide front foot with a narrow heel (ordered a 10W). The heel is a tad loose (would have preferred that the elastic was also in the heel) but I removed the insoles and replaced them with ones with more of a grip which keeps them on better. I also had room for a lift that I need to wear on one side. I did not try them with stockings but there was no heel slippage with light/medium weight socks. They're nicely made, no digging anywhere and have a slip proof rubber type sole so I feel secure in walking in them. The elastic around the opening doesn't bunch/lays flat and keeps the shoes from gaping when you walk. Definitely recommend.

I have 7 1/2 N feet. These are classy, comfortable, and stylish for spring. The suede bow is cute, but not too winter looking. For those with a long second toe consider going up 1/2 size. It's not a pointed shoe.

Great looking ballet flat. Fits true to size. Many shoes expose and cut a little toe, but the WW fully covers my toes and yet looks narrow and petite. There is a band around the top of the shoes that was too tight for my heels and I had to wear band aids until I broke the shoes in. Now they are comfortable and look great!

Classy shoe, well made but quite narrow. I love Munro Americans however, I find some styles smaller and more narrow than one would expect. I gave it one star for comfort because it was too narrow. Tried to order a size 5 wide but it is not available now.

I depended upon two stores in my area for narrow sizes. Both stores stopped selling shoes altogether. Many of the shoe designers have moved their factories to Asia, and no longer offer extended sizes. Munro American offers extended sizes and widths, and they are made in the USA. All good.

Love my new shoes! I purchased them for an upcoming trip to Paris this spring. They fit like a glove and have a nice soft cushion to walk on. They are my favorite purchase for the trip.

Love all Munro American shoes and these are truly the most amazing flats I have ever put on my RETAIL Extra-Wide feet....very hard to find shoes that are so comfortable. Love the entire line, but these especially I would recommend in a heartbeat!

In my earlier review didn't check off the stars but these get 5 stars from me. Now have them in 3 colors and love them. Find the fit and width true to my usual Munro size 9N. These are more stylish than the usual Munro offerings and hopefully there will be more. As always, thanks to Zappos for making shoe shopping for those of us with narrow feet so easy.

I ordered a 7SS and they fit like a glove. They are dressy enough to wear with cocktail clothes.

I bought these shoes in size 8 1/2 N and thought they might be too short. I couldn't decide, so I finally ordered another pair in 9 N. It was immediately obvious that the size 9s were too long, and I'm returning them. I wore the 8 1/2 in my living room for awhile, and finally wore them to dinner. I walked nearly a mile and my very fussy feet were okay. I think the shoes stretched slightly, which was a relief. While these are not the most comfortable shoes Munro makes, they are the only dressy shoes I have that I can really walk in. I love them! And I love Zappos. Where else can you get such good service? Even though I live in New York City, which has tons of shoe stores, I buy nearly all my shoes from Zappos. Thank you, Zappos. I don't know what I would do without you.

They should skip the faux fur! Wore these for about a week before the fleece on the inside of the shoe began to bunch. Another two weeks after that, they became basically unwearable because the fleece came off unevenly or balled up in clumps. Not what I expect from a shoe at this price. If you decide to buy them, wear them infrequently (NEVER two days in a row!) with socks and be aware they are at least 1/2 size too small.

Deliciouso!!!! I wear a size 7 1/2 and I know from owning a prior pair of shearling boots that I have to go up at least a size due to the genuine long shearling. In this particular shoe I had ordered an 8 1/2 and it was too small so I just sent it back for a 9 1/2. The shoe is like butter! It almost feels illegal to be wearing such a luxurious, comfy shoe. It's like wearing the most comfortable pair of slippers outside without having to worry about getting them wet because unlike UGGS they are 100% waterproof! I love them and I especially love shopping Zappos! They make shopping a hassle free experience. I recommend these "exterior" houseslippers. If your feet always hurt and have you experience back pain, you will feel like heaven!

La Canadienne Teddy - Ordered a size larger, because I had tried on my friend's who is a size larger than me, but it felt very comfortable with socks, so I ordered them in the larger size. Find them soo very comfortable, and able to wear them for a full day of shopping.

Fabulous shoe! I was very leary of ordering this shoe since I wear a size 11M, but I always wear an 11.5 in Mephisto and Dansko. I was pleasantly surprised when the shoe fit perfectly and is wonderfully lush to boot! The first pair arrived with a defect in the suede, but Zappos shipped a second pair immediately. These are perfect inside and out, and look nice enough to wear with wood slacks...something I never to with my Danskos since they are too casual. Nordstroms did not have my size, and with Zappos I saved on tax and shipping!!! Zappos even gave me a gift certificate for my next purchase!!!

Not flashy but warm and comfy - Super comfortable. Heel is just high enough for a "lift" and very stable. Your foot won't wobble when pavement is slippery. Some day companies may make the lining of black leather shoes so that the dye doesn't transfer to light colored stockings or socks -- but it "ain't now, babe." Nevertheless, I would recommend this shoe.

Runs Small - I'm anxiously waiting to get a size that fits. I wear an 8.5-9 and ordered an 8.5 thinking that this would be similar to an Ugg fit due to the shearling- but the shoe was very much too small. I'm ordering a 9.5 and hoping it works! Great shoe though- the shearling lining is wonderful and the sole is so light- these shoes will pack well.

Everyday Wear - The comfort, craftsmanship and quality of this shoe is excellent, however I find it slightly prissy or matronly. It's just a little too low-profile, which might be useful for some.

NOT MADE FOR WALKIN G! These shoes look great and are made with fine quality. Wore around house a bit and was so happy about them wanted to order in different colors. Yesterday wore to the mall for shopping...ouch my shins! Something about the way they are (? don't know if it is elevation, type sole or the cut of the shoe) makes your shins hurt after about a block of walking. You can wear these to lounge around in but don't plan to walk any distance. An expensive lesson.
