I really love these shoes!  I haven't had much success with shoes with pointed toes in the past.  Maybe I have a somewhat wide foot but think it's more that I just won't wear shoes that are at all uncomfortable and these aren't.  Somehow the "pointiness" starts further up on the shoe so it doesn't compromise the widest part of anyone's foot-if that makes any sense!  Anyway, they're very comfortable, good quality and the silver heel plate makes them unique.  I bought the grey leather and the picture on here is somewhat darker than they really are but that's ok-gives me an excuse to order the pewter ones!  I think this shoe will sell out fast.
