Absolutely love.. I wear a size 7 in heels normally, the size 7 was sold out so I took a chance and ordered a 7 1/2, wide, thinking since the back strap isn’t adjustable so it should work.. and it did! Fit perfectlyyyy.. they are comfortable enough..( I don’t do well in heels because I am so flat footed) I am so ecstatic to have them.. color is perfect.. I am not disappointed one bit!! So just consider maybe going a half size up is worth it.. was to me
Danced all night in these and only just started feeling any pain at the very end of the night. Love them!
Pretty shoe. Did not think I could stand in them on hard floors for any period of time. I returned them.
I purchased these for pictures my husband and I got done. Love the comfort and the color matched perfectly!
I don't wear heels very often, but I had an award gala to go to and it fit perfectly with the dress I wore. I bought black, so it will fit with any outfit. It was comfortable except for a small snugness across my big toe. Other shoes have left marks on my feet, but I put a bandaid on where the shoe was pulling against my big toe (keeping it from being seen) and the shoes were perfectly comfortable for several hours of wear! I would buy again as it's hard to find anything comfortable with having plantar fasciitis and tendonitis in one leg. I didn't regret wearing them and my feet were fine that evening and the next day--something rare for me!
For context, I typically wear a size 10 in shoes but often have to size down to a 9.5 in order to fit my width. I am also approx. 255 lbs for any one wondering about supporting a bigger size. I ordered the 9.5 wide and these shoes fit my width perfectly. My toes were a little snug but I am used to it since I always have to size down. I love the way these shoes hold on to the foot making them feel secure and the heel size made me feel steady despite my body size. I did have some discomfort on the ball of my foot and decided to add insoles which helped a lot but by a few hours of wearing them my feet were pretty sore. The insoles made it to where the shoes were just a bit too tight. After I returned home from the wedding I wore them to, my mother decided she really liked them and tried them off. We found that the 9.5 fit her perfectly so she has decided to keep those while I have ordered a second pair at a size up.
Update!!!: I tried walking around the house today in these. Now. You have to think about walking approximately 8 to 12 thousand steps a day in these. Uhm. Nope. If you have a function to be at or a job interview...yes. absolutely can endure but not all day wearable guys sorry to say. Went back by ups today. ....I'm not entirely sure these are the correct fit for me personally. Not as stretchy as I thought they looked to be. If ur feet swell maybe not I'm going to try them to be sure. They will go back if they donr perform. I do not play. Not when it comes to my feet. I need comfortable I'm talking cloud comfy foot wear. I'm walking about 6 miles a day in these shoes. Not settling for less. The first is okay. Just at a 10. Like my heel will hang over sitting down I noticed. Veryslight but not that noticable...idk. I'll update everybody in a bit.
These shoes are so comfortable! These are very pretty on as well!
