"i have these moccasins in the dark and light brown colors and i love them! they're cute, unique, and are really great for skinny jeans.
it's true the studs come off. one of the studs on a shoe was already loose when it arrived in the mail, but what can you do? i'd suggest passing if that's something that would really bother you, but to me it wasn't a huge deal.
for sizing, i got a size 9 (normally an 8.5). i tried the 8.5 and it fit, but seeing as these are going to be fall shoes for me and i'll be wearing thick shocks, the 9 was a good fit. you'd likely be safe with either, true size or sizing up.
definitely happy with my purchase, these shoes are quality and very fun for the fall!"
