I was looking for a pair of "comfortable" exotic dance shoes to wear to a pole dance class.  Saw these on Amazon for a good price and figured I'd try them out.  Well first off I am not a girl that normally wears heels so I didn't expect any shoe to feel nice, but was hoping not to have to crawl home or kick my shoes off after 5 minutes because my feet went dead.  These worked out great and I wore them for 75 minutes no problem.  There is a nice plush layer in the shoe and while they appear high they are not as steep as other heels.
