I bought these because I have the Dream Pairs flats which are incredibly soft, flexible, and comfortable, and I wanted the same comfort in a low wedge. I am between sizes, and mistakenly bought the smaller size which was too small, so I returned them and got the next size up. They fit SO much better. I took one star away because they are not quite as comfy and flexible as the flats that I love so much, but still relatively comfortable for office-wear/going out. I just wouldn't wear them if you plan to do a significant amount of walking.
