I was really hoping for some comfy high heels…

I was really hoping for some comfortable high heels with a wide toe box as I am a lawyer who attends Court and need dressy Court shoes (sick of wearing flats).
While the toe box is wider/rounder, my toes still jam into the front/top of the toe box, so the toe box is not comfortable.
The decoration/patterns are really cool and the heel height/stability is fine, but the material that the shoes are made of is very hard, not leather and was slicing into my ankle bone with each step. I will only be able to wear these shoes if I will not be walking or standing, and only with thick socks or stockings :( For reference I have slim ankles, slim mid foot, and natural-splay toes, so prefer wide toe boxes e.g. vivobarefoot, saguaro etc.

Hot Chocolate warms my soul.

I always have an excellent experience with your business. Communication between staff is quick, professional, and always satisfactory. I love your shoes too. Quality and design are just amazing. So worth the price.

The shoes actually are comfortable

The shoes actually are comfortable. They run big…I’m an 8.5 and fit well into their 7s. Unique and can stand in them all day, it’s a win for me. I’m hoping they last as well.

Not cheap but worth it!

These shoes are not inexpensive but there are many "sales" to allow folks like me the chance to snag many of the ones that catch my eye (before my size sells out). The quality is great and they arrive very quickly.
