I love these shoes! They're so comfortable, and a consistent Nine West size (I'm always a 7.5). There's no actual seam to the leather straps over the foot so they're very smooth and don't rub your feet at all. My only complaint is that the heel is kind of plastic on the bottom, so if you're on tile and go around a corner, you have to make sure you don't hit heel first so you don't slip!This is my only pair of wedge-like shoes (stilettos are my usual) but they're quite cute. The cork works well for them, too.
