The Kensi boot is gorgeous! I got them in blue and I love them. They fit well and are comfortable. I am on my feet all day at work (hair stylist) and at the end of the day they were still comfy. What more could a girl ask for in a stylish and practical boot? As usual, Zappos has the best customer service. It's the only place I buy my shoes.

Cute shoes but not quite the color I was hoping for to go with an outfit for the holidays. Even though I won't keep them, I will say they were comfortable. They are same heel height as a Born Oxford style I bought last year and have been very happy with. If you live in the Midwest, take note - the heels are suede. Definitely fair weather shoes.

You really want these shoes to be comfortable but they just are not. While my heel doesn't ache as much as in other heels and there is some arch support, the incline in this shoe is horrible. Even with inserts my foot just crashes into the front of the shoe and even though I got a smaller size, the back of my foot doesn't fill the shoe.

They are gorgeous and extremely uncomfortable. I had to take them back, couldn't walk 10 feet, but I am bad in high heels, I was hoping with the wedge, they'd be okay.

These could actually be wearable if they had a platform in front to reduce the sharp angle the forefoot in forced into. Plus they would look better too! I couldn't even walk in them. I'm not getting bunions for anything! Never have and hopefully never will. I thought Born was built for style and comfort. They must have sold the company - they certainly aren't like they used to be.

I bought these boxer briefs for my husband that is in Afghanistain for the next 10 months. Currently the temps are over 100 degrees. I asked for his input on them. He said "oh I love them! They are amazing! Keep me cool and dry!" He also commented that his "junk" was happy.

The most comfortable chonies I own. I wear the silk weight boxer briefs and got these to mix it up. Capilene material is very smooth and comfortable. Keeps you cool and comfortable.
