I'm normally wear a 7 1/2. I purchased a 6 1/2 and 7. They were both too big. I was not pleased with how the shoes arrived. The shoes were falling out of the bag when I opened it because the box was literally falling apart. Torn and smashed box. I can't believe you shipped an order in that kind of condition. I expect better from Nordstrom.

Purchased emerald green to match my emerald green track pants. Wear size 10, which fits to a tee. Actually makes my foot appear smallerVery surprised as how lightweight and comfortable these are. The green color pops, pops, and pops! The tongue is kinda short but I can deal with that. The inseam also comes out. Feels like I'm walking on air. So pleased, I went back and ordered the black pair. Very fast delivery.

Bought a women's 10. I need to go down half size. Not sure if a whole size down for me would be comfortable as the toe box is a bit narrow. Lots of wiggle room width wise even though the shoe is narrow at the tip, if that makes sense. The thin nylon fabric contributes to the extra space of wiggle room. Definitely no support, pretty flat shoe. I could probably get over that by adding insoles. (Which in that case I would only go half size down, instead of a whole size down) Will say that if you have big feet like me, it will only make them look bigger. Makes my feet look longer than it is but hoping sizing down half or whole size would fix that. Overall comfortable shoes, doesn't rub anywhere that would cause blisters and I wear thin half socks (toe socks) with these. ... MoreBought a women's 10. I need to go down half size.

The good news first: These are really cute shoes, extremely comfortable, and so on-trend right now that they're hard to get your hands on. I'm not finding any quality control issues that other reviewers did, and they seem as well made as any other Adidas shoes I've worn in the past.Now the "bad" news: I ignored the reviewers who cautioned these ran big, because I've always found Adidas to be true-to-size. However, those reviewers were right, and the pair I got do in fact run exactly a half size big. (I compared the length of my new pair in size 9 with an older pair in 9½, and they matched perfectly.)Even though sizing should of course be accurate, this issue wasn't a big deal for me. I typically wear sneakers with beefier socks like Thorlo or Bombas, and that ... MoreThe good news first: These are really cute shoes, extremely comfortable, and so on-trend right now that they're hard to get your hands on.

I typically wear sneakers with beefier socks like Thorlo or Bombas, and that pretty much requires you go up in shoe size anyway.And, even if I'd wanted to exchange these shoes for a half size smaller, they were no longer available. These and other Adidas sneakers (especially Gazelle and Samba) are flying off the shelf. Better get 'em while you can. Or get some fatter socks. :-)
I can’t believe the number of reviews that say these shoes run true-to-size. They run HUGE and you definitely need to size down at least a full size, if not more.I am a 9 in most US brands and a 39.5 in European. I ordered an 8.5 in these and they are like clown shoes on me. I probably need a 7.5. Wild.
The SL 72 women’s sneaker runs large….. not true to size as indicated. I’m a true 7.5 and I went a half size down after reading reviews and 7 is still loose on me. My feet are medium/regular width. I decided to order a size 6.5 to compare the difference in fit and return the pair that doesn’t work for me. I suggest factoring in the type of material these sneakers are made of and the width of your feet. Leather typically holds shape better, but fabric tends stretch fairly easily.
Really love the Adidas samba sl. Comfort is unbelievable. Great material. Love the purple color. Great to run errands and stylish. Third pair ordered.
These shoes do not run true to size. At least in my case they don't. I always wear a size 10 M and in this shoe I finally settled for a 9.5 M. Probably could've worn a 9 M. The heel does run wide and if you do not lace the shoes all the way your heel will slip. I could take these shoes off without even untying them in my normal size. I will see if the 9.5 is any better and if it isn't I will go back to the Samba or Gazelle. I wear a size 10 in both of those shoes. These are cute but Adidas needs to fix this sizing issue. Frustrated beyond belief.
So disappointed in Nordstroms! Purchased a pair of shoes, when I received box was broken, and on side of box sticker that said Nordstroms Rack, so disappointed! If I purchased item on the Rack app I would have been ok but I purchased thru Nordstroms, completely different and then the return process HORRIBLE! I took QR code to FedX for free return and FedX made me pay for a shipping bag $5, made me so mad I will never shop at Nordstroms again and will make sure my family never shops at Nordstroms again! So disappointed and angry! And I have always been a faithful shopper! Not any more
Got my typical size 6 and they were too big. Also the green color has faint pink stripes. I thought they were white when I ordered. The issue I have with the pink is that it looks like you threw the white shoes into the laundry with a red sweater. It’s just looks like a mistake. Returning.
