Any Charles David at this price is a deal and this one's no exception. The Pompadour's been a popular style for several years for good reason. It's such a well made shoe with a classic style - always current. From the plush, high quality outer (bought gorgeous red suede) to the ultra soft lining, to the cushy footbed. It's an all around quality classic shoe. Typical Charles David.
Have several pair and the fit does run just slightly large on all of them-  but it's not even 1/2 size (more like 1/4 size???) so not enough to size down. I love that little extra bit of room with a four inch heel! It feels perfect - no toe crunching. Nothing negative to say about this shoe - except that my size wasn't available in more colors!!
