I LOVE these boots!!  I thought they would be too tall and that I wouldn't really wear them that often, but for $20 I figured I'd check them out.  With the platform part being and inch high, my foot isn't at a crazy angle.  I can wear them all day and they don't hurt my feet at all.  They are true to size.  I first ordered them in light gray...and I loved them so much I just ordered them in black too!  worth it!
