These are great gladiator style sandals that offer plenty of height.  The platform helps balance the heel height.  They are very comfortable and the neutral color is great with so many color palettes.  It's a casual style but the height and "strappiness" adds to the sexiness.  I didn't give 5 stars because there are few imperfections...there are a few spots where glue is exposed.  It is not horrible and is not evident unless you're looking closely at the shoe an it doesn't appear to be loose in that area. Overall great addition to any Summer/Spring sandal wardrobe.
