Beautiful and SO comfortable

I LOVE these shoes! I don't wear high heels a lot--or ever, really (I'm a sneakers sort of girl, even at work)--but I saw these shoes and thought they were so adorable that they would be worth the pain. You can't imagine my surprise when I wore them for the first time and found them to be nearly as comfortable as my favorite sneakers (and more comfortable than my least favorite). I wore them to a New Years party which lasted several hours and experienced NO discomfort whatsoever. In fact, I've never felt any discomfort from wearing these shoes, which I do every time I need to look a little nicer than usual.
More importantly, these shoes are BEAUTIFUL. I thought they looked good in the picture, but they are even more attractive in person. While I originally liked the brown pair better, and bought the black only because the brown didn't come in my size, the black pair look so good that nothing could surpass them. I love the material and fabric, I love the leather tipped toe, I love the strap, and I love the shape of the heel (stylish AND stable!). I love the shoes! Maybe it's just because they're my first ever pair of nice pumps, but just the thought of them (not to mention the thought of actually wearing them) makes me excited.
I can't recommend these shoes strongly enough. They are my favorite shoes among all I've ever worn. |
Fit is a little off...

| I buy a lot of Clarks shoes, and though nice looking, these are a bit off in the fit. They are snug across the toe, but look broad and rounded. I had to pad the ball of the foot because the footbed feels hard. The heel height is good, and they are a stylish conservative shoe that is nice with pants, suits, and skirts. |
I get many compliments while my feet throb with pain not pleasure

I purchased these exclusively to wear to job interviews or with a suit. They do the job of looking the part - like a socially acceptable business shoe for a woman. I get alot of compliments when I wear them, but to be honest, this is probably because people are relieved that I am wearing heels rather than because the shoes are stunning.
As part of my lifestyle, I walk everywhere. The average amount of walking I do on a given day of wearing these is 3/4 of a mile to work, 1/2 mile to what ever thing I'm wearing these to and then a mile home from whatever thing. These shoes are NOT ADEQUATE for that.
Once I was wearing them and realized that I had forgotten to drop a letter at the post office while running lunch time errands. I would now have to go to the post office after work, then go home. I nearly cried.
My feet frequently hurt for a couple of days after I wear these shoes. Clearly, these are shoes made for couch potatos who drive everywhere.
I recommend that you get a pair of Bass flats instead. The Bass flats got me similar compliments, and other than having a thinnish sole which was bad for walking long distances (more than 6 miles) on asphault, they were great. They did not make my feet hurt for days after. |

Clarks are generally comfortable, however, conservative shoes, but these are extremely comfortable and stylish. I'm not a big fan of wearing heels, but I need them for work, and I couldn't be happier with my purchase.
The heel is angled so that the pressure of your step is more evenly distributed, which alleviates that "walking on your tip toes" feeling.
There is plenty of arch support, any more might be uncomfortable for some people.
My only complaint is that you can't fully unbuckle the shoe because it is very difficult to get the strap back through the metal piece (the end is widened to prevent it from pulling through). Basically you loosen your shoe and wiggle your foot out. I feel that is a small price to pay for such an economical yet practical shoe. |
