The heel is quite high so I do not recommend if you are not comfortable wearing a higher heel. I am 5'7" so these actually make me extremely tall but I like that. Once broken in they are comfortable and the heel just takes some getting used to because they are quite thin. ... Overall,. they are well made but as with any decently priced shoe, they will fall apart eventually. I actually purchased a back up pair since they were not expensive and now have a brand new pair for next fall/winter. i recommend these but only for people comfortable wearing heels this high.
