I usually wear a size
"I usually wear a size 8-8. 5 W and after reading some reviews about ordering up a size in the Z Soul, I decided to order the 8. 5W in the navy color. It fits perfectly. I like that Taos offers this in the wide width and in so many colors. This is a fun sneaker to wear and the zipper really works, making it easier to slip into and go. Interestingly, I notice my hip doesn't hurt when I wear these sneakers for walking (it will with other brand sneakers). I plan to purchase from Taos again."
