I ordered these during a special and was very happy when I received them. Look expensive and fit perfect.  however, when I wore them for a few hours, I had blisters on the back of my feet.  Disclaimer, I live in South Florida and rarely wear closed shoes so maybe others won't experience this.  If not, beautiful shoes at a great price.  And I'm keeping them - they are so pretty - I'll either build up some resistance or wear a couple band-aids that will be hidden by the back anyway.  I know the back makes it a bit dressier/classier/stronger but these would be perfect for me with a simple strap.
