These shoes are very sexy but boy are they painful to even stand in!  I own another pair of Pleaser shoes and they are very wearable.  These shoes also fit funny so that the instep area bunches and pokes out at the sides.  I have a narrow foot but I tightened all the laces and it didn't help at all.  Seller also didn't offer any concession for what I would call a defect (the bunching at the instep).  Overall wear these sitting down and make sure your audience only sees them from the side.  :-(
