Initially, these shoes were offered from Aersoles. I adored them but I could not justify paying more than $30.00 for flat shoes. I had been looking at these shoes for more than a year.  I was hoping they would go below the sale price of $29.99 that aerosoles offered but they never did.  Therefore I ended up paying more than I could have paid a few months ago at Amazon.com.  Nevertheless,these shoes are worth the cost! These shoes are so cute and comfortable!  I normally wear 4 inch heels or higher but I like flat shoes with long pretty summer casual dresses.  These shoes are pretty and they feel like you are walking on clouds!  I wish they had more colors I liked. I will be purchasing Aerosoles from now on.......
