Having had for some time now, another brand of gold stiletto pumps, I have a greater appreciation for Pleaser's Seduce-420 style, as they provide added room for my toes. Though this other brand offers their gold metallic pumps in the V-style vamp (my favorite) these Seduce pumps are of the U-style. Nonetheless, with the extended toe I have greater control walking in same due to all of my toes and the ball of each foot landing securely with each step. Indeed, a lot to take into consideration when wearing stilettos over extended periods of time. As well, not unlike the distinction found with patent footwear--black in particular, gold metallic adds some of that same savoir-faire to walking in highheels, not to mention high spirits.
