I just received the Black pair and I also ordered, at the same time, the Light Brown. The Light Brown has just been sent (a week later, wondering why? and the cost between the two was double). I thought I'd give them a try anyway, regardless of cost. I need comfort and some support but love high heels ( I am 4'11"). Need all the help I can get. :)

I couldn't wait to get home from work ( I work in a bank on my feet all day ) knowing the Black pair had been delivered just so I could see what all the reviewers were ranting about giving this shoe 5 stars. Well I MUST agree whole hardheartedly, this shoe has earned 5 stars+. I mean absolutely is the most comfortable high heel (for me anyway) that I have ever worn. Comfort is TOP quality. They ARE REAL LEATHER! An amazing shoe sold by Amazon. I love them so much, I got online on Amazon as soon as I tried them on and ordered the Dark Brown/Pale Gold pair. I hate paying this much, or anything over $40 for any shoe. These ARE WORTH every pennystraight out of box.

I normally take a 5.5 shoe, 6 in boot and sneaker. I was hesitant but I read reviews, after all that is why products are reviewed. So, I read and ordered a .50 size down (5) and not my normal 5.5. Granted I live in Florida and most often do NOT wear socks (unless winter around house) nor do I wear nylons throughout the year. I am basing my comfort on the level my feet are at when I walk in the door from being on my feet all day (dogs are barking). Not tonight! Tomorrow after wearing them all day, may just be another story. I am of the opinion, I will not be supporting another pair of back up heels. I am confident they will be comfortable all day. I would have purchased the "shark" color as well. Not sold in my size, nor were the reviews raving. I don't desire to have $100+ shoes fade at any time.

There, you have my review. Hands down the best heels I have ever worn. Comfort, feel, real leather, support, style and walking steadily. As one reviewer mentioned, she lost balance or something to the effect. Absolutely no complaints here. Absolutely love them. Way to go, Amazon! Thank you.
