These shoes feel good when you try them on.  Well made and comfortable. But if you plan on wearing hose or tights with them, walk around in them at home for a little while  first.  I tried slick hose with them and my feet slid forward in shoes, squishing my toes.  No doubt you will have no trouble if you don't wear hose or tights with these.  Well made, classy shoes.  Also, I got the patent leather which isn't actually leather.
