I love the look of these shoes, however as is customarily the case in all of her shoes, You have to buy them at least a size and half larger than you normally do. Even knowing that, the platform angle is too sharp and forces your ankle into a straight position, which makes it painful to wear for even a few minutes. I do have many of her platform shoes and I LOVE them, her latest year model shoes have all had this new angle to the platform, which the whole point of the platform is to enable you to wear taller heels without the expense of your knees and ankles. I had to send them back due to them not being comfortable to wear.
