I purchased the black combo fabric at a discounted retailer for 1/3 of the selling price. These shoes are very attractive from the front. However, they are extremely narrow, my toes were in so much pain after only a few minutes of walking around my kitchen. The shoe isn't soft, it is very stiff.  I think there is a design flaw in the heel, not surprised many complain about them breaking.  Something is also "off" about the heel.  It isn't very sexy or feminine, kind of square and awkward. Not very attractive from the side view in my opinion.  Unfortunately, these are going back. Too bad, I really wanted these for my collection.
