I am a true 9.5 US size but have to go up to 10. This shoe is exactly the color you see online. The heel is cute and sturdy (5'9 over 220lbs) I wished it came in other colors. I always put shoe pad (cushion/stop foot from sliding) in all my shoes. I find this to help (some mention shoe was wide) great shoe for cost.

Looks just like the picture
