Women's Gucci Ace sneaker with Web

Brand new line of the Ace web sneakers. I purchased these in Sept 2023. The sales associate told me that most people size down so I listened and should not have! I typically wear a size US 8 (EU 38) and these are US 7.5 (EU 37.5). After an hour or so of where my toes start to hurt. I have not even worn them a handful of times but cannot due to the size issue. If you wear a US size 8 or EU size 38, then these are the shoes. Do not recommend sizing down as the sales associates would recommend! Great condition, lightly worn, sole and base like brand new.
