Heel was higher than 2.5"- I had to return these shoes, unfortunately. They were very cute but I am very tall and heels on me have to stop at 2.5". The description said this shoe has a 2.5" heel; however, I ordered a size 10 and the heel was 3". I even got out a ruler and measured. Just too high for someone already heads above the crowd.

Adidas rocks - These shoes are the best tennis shoes I have ever had. They are so comfortable and look so nice. You can wear them on and of the tennis court. I where them all the time whether I am going out to dinner or at the movies. If you are going to get tennis shoes get the Barricade 3. Also they make you fun fast and smooth. Thank you adidas for making these wonderful shoes.

Pros: Stability, Lateral Support, Lightweight, Comfortable ride & Court Traction. Cons: Nothing particular.
