I love this shoe!!  It has some padding across the top which is very comfy and makes the fit nice and snug.  I have a very narrow foot and generally this type of shoe is loose and floppy - have to be careful or it will go flying off your foot with each step - but not this one!!  It hugs my foot & I can walk very comfortably.
The color is very deceiving.  I am so disappointed in that!  When it says metallic I was expecting it to look better than it does.  It looks like a black plastic.  Shiny black plastic.  I think a pewter or bronze would look much nicer.  I am leaving for vacation, plus it fits soooooooo great that I do not want to send them back.
p.s.  these are really great if you normally experience heel pain (I do)
