Ahnu did a nice job with this pretty shoe. It would be perfect with neutral shorts or capris or with a short khaki or pale blue skirt. It does not work with jeans for me. I normally wear an 8N in Naturalizer, Softspots and Munro and ordered a 7.5M here. It is very comfortable. There is room on all sides of the toes to stretch but the best part is that the shoe fits beautifully to a narrow heel and stays on. It is so flexible that one can stand on one's toes without difficulty and without the shoe coming off. It has a sueded quality and I would not wear it in wet grass.

These are super-cute, but seem to run at least a half size to big (for my foot anyway). I ordered two pairs of Keens to try at the same time in the same size (10.5) and they were truer to size for me. They feel like they would be very comfortable though. Good cushion and support.

These are very comfortable and attractive shoes. I bought them for an upcoming trip to Paris. The fit is great, and the diagonal Velcro strap allows for a custom fit. The black color has a slight blue tinge to it.

These lovely shoes hurt my feet. I love these shoes and they are so cute, but they really hurt my feet. I should say that I have big feet, size 10, and also wide. I usually take a 10 and in these I ordered a 9½ after reading other reviews and they did seem to fit well, at first. They are a great length my toes are not too cramped at all, actually a bit of room still in the toe, but then I wore them to work. Ouchie, never mind walking home in them, no way, I got a ride. (I should say I was on my feet for eight hours in them. They really hurt the inner and outer sides of my feet at the metatarsal phalangeal joints. So a word to anyone with wider feet, these shoes may not be the most comfortable shoes out there.

I received this lovely shoe today. It's a darling shoe, the embroidery is so pretty. Shoe is well made and so far on the carpet, seems to be very comfortable despite swollen footsies. I could see the top part of the shoe could cause discomfort where it lays just below the base of the big toe/nerve but fortunately it isn't tight -- however, I agree with the blogger, shoe is about a half size too big...seriously. I read this review before purchasing but still ordered my regular size to play it safe, now I wish I hadn't. I normally wear a size 11 B (Med). I am sad because I don't see 10.5 available anymore, and I also wanted them in Black. Zappos, please order more of these darling shoes! I don't know if half size smaller would work or not but I'd like to give it a try, seeing as the 11 is a tad too long. Note: Shoes seem to run 1/2 size larger (rarely, if ever have I said this about a size 11 but its true, shoe is loose). Still love this darling, comfy Mary Jane...beautiful and well made!

I bought these for travel. I walked and walked in them for 2 weeks right out of the box with no problems whatsoever...... well, except for the tight toe box from swollen feet! I have plantar facitis and have to wear shoes with great arch support. No problem! For a flat, that is amazing! The sole is also great for wet, slippery walking. I wear a size 8, or 39, and it fit perfectly although I have had to wear an 8.5 in some other Ahnu shoes. I was heartbroken when Ahnu discontinued the Benecia. They were the world's best shoes. After the ultimate travel test, I can say that the Gracie is my new favorite and go-to travel shoe!

Love these shoes. Love. I have incredibly picky feet due to plantar fasciitis that will flare up when I wear bad shoes. I usually stick to Clarks and Privo, but these had other good reviews and I decided to give them a shot. I am completely thrilled. The support is amazing, the back of the heel is padded and higher than most shoes so it does not rub, and these shoes were comfortable and ready for a long day of walking straight out of the box. The do run a half-size to full size large (I usually wear 8.5 or 9 and I had to exchange for an 8). These are also a bit on the wide side but not enough to cause an issue with slipping due to the adjustable strap.

I really wanted to like this shoe. I got the neutral tan-ish color. It was pretty blah with my skin tone, and the shoe did nothing for me in terms of style. It was comfortable, though my big toe did touch up against the end of the toe box. I bought them hoping to take with me to London in 2 weeks, but they were just kind of blah. Back they go. I normally wear a size 8. I got these in an 8 1/2. They fit overall fairly well in that size, except for the toe issue on my left foot.

This is a darling shoe! It runs a little narrow (which is great for me as I have narrow feet) but is a little long in length. I ordered my usual size 9 but they really were a little long so I have returned them and reordered in an 8 1/2 (I can rarely fit into an 8 1/2 these days). I can't wait to get my new pair. These shoes seemed to have decent support for a lighter weight shoe as well. I don't think I can wear them all day at work as I am on my feet all day, but plan on wearing them in the evening to go out as they are so cute.

Love this shoe. Offers good support for my very low arches. It's not as cushioned as the Teva Makena but it still has plenty of cushioning. It's very cute. I bought the black. It's more like a dark charcoal color which I think keeps it in the summer color range.

I like the shoe, but runs large. My custom insoles will fit nicely. It has a nice heel grip that will hold heel in place. Am returning and hope my size becomes available.

These are wonderful shoes! Super comfortable right out of the box, even though I have some foot issues, like a neuroma. They are lightweight and supportive, and the leaf design makes them so cute! I just wish they didn't cost so much so I could get more!

I really like these shoes. They are quite pricey, but I prefer to buy a good pair of shoes I can wear for years. I have big, wide feet, but these work for me. They are quite comfortable for lots of walking. I usually wear them sockless (or with a footie wrapped around the insole), but I can wear a thin sock if needed.

These shoes are very pretty and comfortable. I have high arches, and had to add a little extra insert, but not as much as usual. So there is moderate support. The color is true to the picture. I normally wear a 7, although I sometimes take a 6.5. I needed a 6.5 in this shoe, possibly could have worn a six if worn with nylons or no socks.

I love this shoe. I have a medium width, size 11 and there is nice toe room in them, refreshing! Comfort is 100%. I ordered my second pair and hope soon will be more colors available. Don't let them stop making this shoe!

I bought these shoes for a trip to Europe. I walked a lot on these and even did light town bike riding. I have very poor arches and knee pain so I needed a shoe with a good arch to support these issues. I loved them and still do. I am on my feet a lot of the day and can wear them all day without issues. Highly recommend them. I am in my late 20s and get compliments from people of all ages on the style. Loved them and most Ahnu shoes.

Very cute shoes and very well made. I found this true to size. These shoes do have a larger toe bed than most flats so I was hoping they'd work for me because I have bunions on my big toes. Unfortunately, the cut of the shoe hit me exactly on my sore bunion so I had to return.

Very comfy shoes. I wore them daily in the UK and Ireland for 2 weeks. My feet never got tired! They stayed on my feet well (not slipping off the heels like some of my other similar shoes). The adjustable strap was great, I loosened it when my feet got swollen with all the walking.

Zappos was the only site that carried the shoes that I wanted. I spoke to an associate to place my order and explained that I needed the shoes in five days for vacation. I was amazed that the shoes arrived the next day! Unfortunately I had a problem with the size. I called back and the associate was very helpful and instructed me on how to return the shoes and they would send the proper size. The next day the shoes arrived. Thank you for the great service I received.

I love this shoe. This will be my third pair. Looks amazing and makes large feet look small. Although many people think it's a half size too big, I don't. It gives me room to wear a sock with it in the winter.

I love these shoes. They are my new favorites. I bought one in the spring in the lighter beige. This time I bought a pair in black and darker brown called chocolate chip. I know the reviews say they seem to run a half size too big so perhaps I am really an 11 1/2. But I think they fit great--roomy enough to wear with socks during the winter. And they make my baby barge feet look small! Really! I love the way they look. My husband even complimented me on them and I think that's the first time he complimented me on a pair of shoes in all our married life!

I love the Gracies. I've been wearing a pair in "new black" for two years now. They are comfortable, cute and easy to wear. I always get compliments on them. I got them for a trip to Rome because I needed a pair of casual shoes to wear while walking on cobblestone lined streets. From past experience, flimsy soles shoes and heels are not recommended (can be dangerous). The Gracies are awesome because they are very feminine looking but provide great support and traction on any surface. They are my go-to summer flats. They broke in quickly and the soft leather lining makes them comfy to wear barefoot.I normally wear an 8, but I wear a 7 in these.

I ordered this shoe in a 6-1/2 instead of 7 based on reviews, but it was way too tight in the toes. I reordered it in the 7, and it's a good fit. I do have a wider than average foot, so maybe that accounts for the 7 feeling true to size. Very comfy, cute, love it.
