Incredibly surprised by these shoes! Never have I worn heels like this to a wedding and managed to keep them on my feet all night! These shoes are really comfortable. They don't look it, but they are. I am usually a 7.5 from Madden Girl, and the 7.5 was a LITTLE big when I first tried them on, but the 7 was way too tight. I'd say they're about true to size. I wore them (pewter) with a purple dress and I got quite a few compliments. They look absolutely fantastic, and I can't wait to wear them again. Not only that, but the price is right, they're vegan (yes, vegan), and Zappos sent them to me overnight!

Comfortable and sexy. Doesn't feel like a high heel (a real plus for me) but looks like one.

Don't hesitate to buy this shoe. I purchased it in black for myself and in red for my 18 year old daughter. These shoes can be worn all day and won't hurt your feet. Yeah! Finally a comfortable high heel.

Believe it. These shoes are comfortable. I wore them out-and-about downtown the first day I had them. Because of the platform, it feels like you are wearing a 3 1/2 inch heel, but you get the height of 4 inches. Very cute under jeans! Good price for a fun pair of shoes.

I honestly didn't see how a 4 inch heel could be comfortable, but lo and behold, it totally is! The hidden platform really puts the heel height more around 3 inches. The leather ruffle is stitched in tight, so you don't have to worry about it 'unruffling', a problem I have had with some inexpensive knock-offs bought locally. The ankle strap has enough holes in it to go around my toothpick ankles, which is nice. The only minor problem I encountered is that the heel is still a bit loose, so I solved it by purchasing $4 worth of heel pads. I will be wearing these with my black pants, and they look totally cute peeking out from under the hem. Oh, and also, my order was magically shipped overnight, which was a nice surprise when I came home from work the very next day and there were my super cute shoes! Thanks, Zappos! Loving the customer service.

I love these shoes so much I have two pairs and would love to have a couple more. They are actually very comfortable to wear, too. I just had them on all day for a wedding and had no complaints.

OK, so I found a gray pair at a local store and went back for a black pair a week later, and of course they didn't have my size! Then, I went on Zappos and there they were! These shoes are so comfortable, I could practically jog in them, and the ruffle is so cute sticking out from under jeans. And you can't beat Zappos, free shipping both ways! I highly recommend these shoes.

I ordered another style of shoe and it was out of stock and it is still not in stock so I settled for this shoe. Sometimes things happen for a reason. I love this shoe. I wear an orthotic insole in all my shoes and this shoe easily accommodates the orthotic and the shoe is stylish. It looks great with jeans and it has a solid feel so I can use it for short hikes or long walks. Because I spend a lot of time outdoors and in casual wear, this shoe is a good choice.

Colour is exactly as it shows on the website. Replacing my very reliable pair of 3 year old yellow Vans, who has made it through a long, hot summer in North Carolina and cold, muddy Seattle winters with me.

Vans are so classic and very stylish. Great shoe, great service! Bought brown as I already have black. Black matches everything. If your debating on color, black is a no brainer. The question then is white sole or black sole? I view black sole as fall, winter, or dressier casual. White sole is clearly celebrating nice weather and good times!

Absolutely love this shoe! Fell in love with the mint green color. My first pair of vans, but will not be my last! Felt great on my feet and look cute with just about anything. I ordered these shoes on a Saturday night and got them on Monday afternoon... Zappos is amazing!

This was a gift for my son and I love it that Zappos offers free shipping both ways!! No need to return the shoes tho! My son loved the shoes and they fit perfect! They also were less expensive than purchasing in the Vans store!

I bought this for a present to my girlfriend and she loved at first time. She said it is comfortable and pretty good looking.
