"these shoes are really nice, the problem is the sizing. i ordered (L) for my 5 y/o, based on the sizing description...but they were HUGE, at least 2 sizes too big. so i returned them for (M) which sadly were ~2 sizes too small. if you can make them fit, they would be an adorable addition to the dorothy costume...i just have no idea what sizing method they are using as my 5y/o shoe size is "average" but nowhere close to fitting into any of the sizes for these ruby slippers."
