I absolutely LOVE these shoes! I wore them to a wedding yesterday and had soooo many complements on them. they really are a stunning shoe. the fit is perfect. they look and feel made to measure. I wore these shoes for 10 hours and was not at any time uncomfortable or in pain from wearing an unbroken in shoe for the first time. I was on the dance floor for 6 of those 10 hours ( on the grass lawn) and did not lose my balance at all. the shoe is designed for it's appeal and definitely comfort.
