The size is larger even than the corresponding sports ones (size 39) and the material is somewhat stiff. I didn't return them to avoid the hassle of the process. I will keep them for my child for the future, and we will see how much they will be used.

A very good economical solution for the one hour that the child wears them in the parade and for the 1-2 official events per year that they may need them. Although we ordered the same size that he wears in his sports shoes, these were a little bigger, but by tying the laces tightly, they don't come off the foot. We kept them and wore them like that. However, I would say if you want them to fit exactly, get a size smaller than what you normally wear
