I'm a woman who wears a size 11 shoe, and these fit true to size. I wanted a good pair of "running around doing errands" casual sneakers. Otherwise I was always going out in my running shoes, which isn't really a good idea if you want to keep your running shoes in good shape for as long as possible. These sneakers are cute (they material has a smooth, very fine but not quite suede-like feel), well constructed, and have a very comfortable, cloud-like insole and arch support (my feet have fallen arches, so this matters!) that makes them great not only for running errands but also as the designated "good pair of walking shoes" for trips where you're doing a ton of walking. I love these shoes and would buy them again.
