I was so disappointed in the fit of the shoe. In normally wear a 9 or a 39/40 depending on brand so I ordered the 39. But my big toe was right against the edge of the shoe. So I would say they run at least a half-size to small. Also, I have a slightly higher instep and while it fit it was not all that comfortable, so be aware.

I ordered these in a size 9/9.5. I usually wear a size 9 no problem, unless the toe of the shoe is pointy or short. In this case the toe is short. So, I ordered up a half size to the 10. It was too big at the heel. Too bad... shoe was actually cute and footbed was comfy. Had to return both sizes.

Great look and help with plantar fasciitis but run big on right foot only and the heel slips with every step.

This was my first time trying Alegria. Bought these to replace my old Dansko clogs. Ordered them in 8 wide, which is my usual size. The clogs are cute but they're too snug, both in length and width. Had to push hard to get my feet into them, with and without socks. And the height of the toe box is way too short. It felt like my toes were clapped down and trapped in the clogs; could barely wiggle my toes. There's no way that I can do a 12-hour shift in these. Have to send them back.

These looked frumpier in person than in the picture- I expected something more like a Dansko but they aren’t that. I purchased them as shoes I could wear with my orthotics, but even without the orthotics I wasn’t able to get my foot into them without squishing, and that was with lightweight socks. I returned them and will keep looking for wide width shoes.

This is a clog, and very cute, but very uncomfortable for me due to the negative heel style.

While these are cute shoes, they are very uncomfortable and the slide off the back of my heel. They are also short.

These appear well-made and the footbed is very comfortable. The shoe is lightweight, but my heel slipped constantly even with heel inserts. The top of the shoe was so uncomfortably tight over my instep that it hobbled me and left huge bruises on the tops of my feet. I wore them twice and cannot bear to put them on again. Besides that, they look like duck feet in person. Am completely dissapointed that I spent this much on a pair of unwearable shoes. I will stick to Danskos.

Very heavy shoe and very stiff leather. Wide toe area did not have enough depth for toes. Very disappointed.

I initially loved these shoes and they are very comfortable, but I've had them for 18 months and the soles have completed separated from the upper part of the shoe and they are total garbage now. I'm used to paying more money for nicer shoes as I've had big feet my whole life, and troubled feet once i hit my 30's. I don't mind paying this much for Danskos because they will last almost a decade, but 18 months for this price is a rip off! Steer clear!

Over time I might be able to break the leather in and the could become comfortable, but my 60 year old feet can’t do that any more. I need something comfortable right out of the box. I’ve now tried Algeria, Dansko and Nurse Mates to no avail. I’m going back to my Athletic shoes!

Im a nurse (inpatient) and usually walk 6-7 miles a shift. I wear size 6 (US) in these types of shoes. I have high arcs and petite feet. I had another Alegria Keli Pro size 36R but it was small/tight at the top and I didn't feel much support - they made my feet ache after a 13 hr shift. I returned them. Saw these as highly reviewed but it wasn't for me either. First I order a 37M as Keli 36R was too tight, but this 37M was too big - felt like clown shoes w/ some support for my knees but not for my feet. I exchanged for a 36M and the boxy front edges into my pinky toes and the upper lids of the shoes will rub onto my feet /sometimes digging in. It was so uncomfortable w/ minimal support compared to other brand so I returned these. For the hypes they were not worth it.

These shoes are comfortable BUT UNFLATTERING, VERY masculine in the design, and within a week of wear they scuffed up sooo easily as though I had them for months! I am very disappointed in this purchase as I was in high anticipation to get them, going back to Danskos. I wouldn't recommend!

I thought these pair would redeem themselves after having two pairs of Algeria shoes fall apart for different reasons. I’m not rough on shoes by any means, but these fell apart. The sole started peeling off and every time I took a step they would squeak. So no matter where I went, it sounded like I was stepping on a dog toy. I’m returning them and can’t recommend anyone buys these anymore. They used to be my favorite. Not sure what happened.

I loved these shoes but I have a hammer toe. Note how the shoe tapers towards the sole at the end of the shoe. Too painful to wear for me. Leather is too hard to stretch. Reluctantly had to return them.

SO Disappointed! These were a full 1.5 size smaller than I normally wear. I even ordered up a size based on the reviews. They are super cute and comfy. I wear a women's 13 so I cannot size up any further. Alegria, please revise your size chart and and start offering larger sizes. Women with larger feet love your shoes too!

I loved these shoes initially, but six months in they started SQUEAKING so loudly that they're barely wearable. Ugh!

These shoes are so comfortable on the feet as long as you don't have to walk in them. They have hard non-flexible soles. Since they don't flex, my heel comes out of them every step I take, which I could get used to but the hard soles hitting the concrete floor over a long busy shift was pure torture I purchased these because my heels were hurting and the shoe saleswoman recommended them for working on concrete floors, that they are designed to absorb shock. Was she kidding?? How can that be??? After wearing them several times trying to force myself to get used to them, I was practically a cripple in every joint from my toes up to my mid back. Logic now tells me a hard sole is not going to soften the blow when it hits the concrete over and over again for hours in every work day. I don't know why other people are not having problems with these shoes. They are cute, they just don't work for me.

I love the style of this shoe so much that I bought two pairs. Great comfort and support with plenty of room in the toe box. Easy wearing right out of the box.
