For being high, these shoes are surprisingly comfortable and you can't beat the price. I have some very expensive shoes that are 10x's the cost of these (Pour la Victoire), are as high and not nearly as comfortable. I've always shunned away from inexpensive shoes because I thought they would be killers on your feet, you know the old adage: you get what you pay for. Well, not with these.  I could really wear these for hours and walking is not at all difficult. A very stable shoe. Love them so much I think I'm going to get the turquoise and beige colors!

Also I have to add they run true to size. I ordered the 8, which is 90% of my shoes and the 8 fit perfectly! Wore them last night and they were fine, no rubbing, slipping or pinching and the balls of my feet were not the least bit sore! Great inexpensive shoe!
