I got hit by a car and it messed up my leg, knee, and foot, so I was unable to wear heels. My fiance got these shoes for me, and they were so comfortable on my busted leg that I wore them almost everyday for an entire year, and they still look and feel great on my feet! This was my first pair of UGGs too, so I was impressed by the overall quality of such an expensive shoe. It does pay to buy expensive things sometimes!
