The shoes are big. I wear size 39 and this specific shoe is big for me. When I tried them on in the store, they felt comfortable but when I wore them outside for the first time, I realized that they are huge and heavy on my feet. I added insoles and it slightly fixed the problem. Additionally, the left shoe hit the back of my foot because something in the stitching seems to be sticking out and bothering me, so every time I wear them, I put a bandage on the area to avoid pain. The material seems durable. I expected them to be slightly better. The design is simple and elegant, and that's why I chose them.
