Okay. I have mixed reviews about these pumps. They are stunning, gorgeous, beautiful, etc. However, they are not easy for me to walk in.  I read the reviews and everyone said they were easy to walk in which is why I was daring enough to buy these ridiculously high pumps. The heel or height did not bother me, it was the design of the platform, it felt like I had rocking chairs for shoes. I always felt like I was going to fall forward right on my face.  Since they are so damn gorgeous, I'll tough it out and hopefully one day I will get used to them. Also, they look like more of a rust color than the deep red they appear to be on the picture.
