These are the most comfortable shoes with a heel that I have worn. I am rough on shoes and do a lot of walking and standing and I never wear uncomfortable shoes and so its been a challenge to find shoes that are nice to wear with dresses and be comfortable. These shoes are beautifully made, comfortable, and durable.  The only problem with them as I have very narrow feet and they are a bit wide for me. I wear Dansko clogs as a nurse and I love them also.
