Shoes fit well and are cute as a button. Heel height is perfect for surgery recovery and dressy shoe. The pointed toe is an issue though--I was afraid I would trip over the extra 1 1/2 inch length. Sure wish this shoe had an almond toe instead. They had to go back because of extra length at the toe.

I absolutely love the style and look of these shoes. And they really are comfortable & I have several feet issues. Fortunately, I wore them B at home for a day before the wedding and discovered the problem. I really should have paid more attention to previous reviews. The straps do not stay put. I thought with tights they might do better. But, no. I tried tape & that didn’t work either. So, sadly I’m returning these and I’ll try a strapless pair next time.

The shoe is beautiful, but deceiving. They look really comfortable, but are not. I had to return them because of this fact. I needed a wide shoe because I am recovering from foot surgery, and these were not the answer. I bought them for a wedding, and I couldn't wear them. The material is not soft, has no give whatsoever. If you have a narrow foot and don't mind a tight fit, these are for you.

These shoes are a bit snug. I should have gone a half-size up. Too much trouble to return. I'll donate them or attempt to stretch.

Doesn't fit a narrow foot and there is no strap to adjust. Otherwise good shoe.

I read other reviews and they mentioned how loose the unadjustable straps were…. So I returned these shoes because I’d be walking out of them

The upper was super stiff and excruciating to even try on. Super uncomfortable which was disappointing; cute shoes (clearly very cheap)

Way too big, I really liked the style, sorry it didn't fit. They don't make a 10 and a half in this brand. Too bad

I loved the look and style of this shoe. Sadly, though, the wide width was too narrow for my foot so had to return.

The side/back strap does not adjust and are too big. The material (black2) is a glittery black fabric. I was expecting a more leather type of shoe. Love the shoe design. Wish they fit!

It was unclear that the color “Black 2” is a sparkly black and silver cloth-like black rather than black leather. That color didn’t work for me

The straps are not able to be tightened, and they slip around as you walk, ending up under your heel instead of around it. They look great when you first try them on, but the poor design causes you to look clumsy when you walk.

Beautiful shoes, love the heel height. However, the shoe is too narrow in the front, and the back strap is not stretchy, making it very hard to get on. Unfortunately, I will have to return them.

The sling strap on these is bizarrely oversized. Other reviewers mentioned that but I thought I'd try. The strap is so loose it "floats" up and around the foot and isn't at all secure. If there was an adjustment buckle or two perhaps they could be made to work. But there's nothing to allow tightening it. It's like it was made for a huge, very fat foot. Very disappointed and must send them back.

I do like this shoe; it would have been perfect with these exceptions. 1) The 10 was too small, the 11 to big! I wish it could have come in a 10 &1/2. Regardless of that, the back strap does not stay up!
