I LOVE these shoes, my second pair of Bella Vitas.  I bought my first pair for a super sale price and now am a addict just wanting MORE!! They are so comfortable.  I work in an Elementary and am on my feet all day.  The padded area for your feet prevent your toes from slipping down and the wider, square heel make them very sturdy feeling.  I am definitely going to buy more...just waiting for the next sale!!
