I love these shoes! They fit perfect & the quality is fantastic. I don't often wear heels because they usually hurt my back. The heel is 2 3/4" & the platform is 1/2"; not real tall, but more than I'm used to. They're so easy to walk in, I imagine owing to the sturdy construction. Don't get me wrong, they don't feel heavy at all. They're actually fairly light.... and sooo soft. The insole is very comfortable, although there's not a ton of arch support. If you're someone who needs this, I'd suggest adding an insole. Otherwise, the existing insole is just fine. These will look great with skinny jeans or leggings. I was on the fence about ordering them, but so glad I did. These will definitely go into my regular shoe rotation. ....yes, I do have a TON of shoes and I am fairly particular, which says a lot about these booties. I'll update this review in a couple months to let you know how they hold up.
