Hi everyone! I am reposhing these adorable these Dansko black cherry patent leather opal Mary Janes size 40- Perfect for a true size 9 and a little extra. There is an added heel cushion on the back to help with blisters, its a sticker so easily removable but for these they really did help. I wore them once to a long weekend in Chicago because I wanted something reminiscent of the dark derry buckle heels that are popular atm, but practical. this would be a little big for someone who is a true 8.5
