I bought these for my daughter as a gift and she loves them.  She says these are very comfortable for walking and very cute.  Recently she was hit by a car when she was walking and had minor injuries all over her body.  One shoe got bent from the impact but her foot was not damaged.  We believe the thick sole saved her foot from getting squished.  I ordered another pair right away to replace the pair. They are her lucky shoes.  I think the price is right, and looks very nice.  She can dress up and down and seems to be ok on icy street too.  I hope they are going to be always available.
