Fortunately I have watched the feedback for this model and I followed the advice of people who have said that these ballerinas carved small,. I do a 37, I took a size 38, because there is a small rubber band on each side making it more greenhouse .A little disappointed once you reach, I had very sore feet despite size up. What hurts are the seams at the back of the shoes I also think of the material of the lining is synthetic. I could wear them with a pair of tights
