Elegance meets comfort - A very nice looking shoe! Adds elegance to casual jeans and T-shirt, but can be worn with dressier pants as well. Looks great with capris. Modern look but not cut too low - it stays on the foot. The black patent makes it durable for everyday use but the shoe is still surprisingly flexible. The only thing keeping me from a full 5 star rating is that the heel was a little stiff in the beginning but is starting to soften.
