These boots are really, really comfortable considering the height of the heel. The platform is perfect and the treds on the bottom are great. However, they're really oddly sized. I took the advice of the other reviewers here and went up a half size. The boots feel like they're big that way, but they don't fall off or anything, and I'm pretty sure my normal size would be too small in the toes. So, keep that in mind. Also, because of the thick platform, it's really, really hard to tell where your foot is on each pedal when driving. I had my foot slip off the pedal twice, perhaps because of the thick wedge and the high heel. I generally try to remember to take these off before driving. It isn't really safe to drive without shoes, but that's better than slipping off the break or gas at a dangerous time.
