Are these true to size?
Yes, the product information indicates they are designed to be true to size.
What does 'slingback' mean?
A slingback shoe has a strap that goes around the back of the heel, leaving the heel and ankle exposed.

Can these pumps be worn for extended periods?
The leather lining and insole provide comfort, but the 8cm stiletto heel may not be suitable for very long periods of standing or walking for everyone.
Troubleshooting
Slingback strap feels too loose or tight
Utilize the adjustable buckle fastening on the slingback strap to find a secure and comfortable fit. Ensure the strap is not over-tightened, which could cause discomfort.
Slipping on smooth surfaces
The leather sole may offer less traction on very smooth or wet surfaces. Consider visiting a cobbler to add a thin rubber sole protector for improved grip and durability.
Leather creasing or scuffing
Minor creasing is natural with leather. For scuffs, use a leather conditioner or polish appropriate for the 'Oak Brown' color to help minimize their appearance. Store carefully to prevent future scuffs.
