These get two stars (instead of one) because they WERE super comfy. I say WERE because they broke on the fifth or so wear. I bought them for a wedding I was a bridesmaid in and wore them to work a few times beforehand - enough to break them in and make sure they wouldn't hurt, but not enough to get them dirty or grungy. They made it through the ceremony and pictures, but less than an hour into dancing, the back outside strap completely broke apart from the base of the shoe, rendering them completely unwearable (and I wasn't even dancing that vigorously!). I had to go barefoot for the rest of the night. On the plus side, my dance moves improved tremendously once shoeless, but I still would have liked to wear what was very comfortable and stylish shoes at least a few more times before they broke on me. Also, while they fit pretty well, the ankle strap was a little loose, so if you're between sizes you might want to size down, you know, before they break.
