I was hoping these would be a great change from Dansko Sophies which are super comfortable and perfect height for everyday wear. The bottom feels good but the top strap is placed too high, I can see how it would hurt and because of that they look awkward on feet. I wish Dansko made shoes more like Sophie with adjustable straps but with different bottoms. They are my favorite brand. But the styles other than Sophie for some reason aren't as comfortable and or the heel is too high. The style would be more attractive if front part of the heel were thinner.
