I'll be honest, Miz Mooz shoes are not finely crafted for the price you pay, BUT they are decent quality. I have these shoes in brown and blue and I haven't worn them out yet because it's been winter, but I have worn them for long periods of time in the house. I wouldn't spend a day at the mall in these, but they are fine if you are doing a moderate amount of walking. The ball of the foot is padded.

The two downfalls would be I think the peep toe could rub if you are prone to blisters and they are SLIPPERY. I put non-skid soles on the bottom and that helped tremendously. They do make noise when you walk, but if you wear a lot of shoes like this, you won't even notice unless you are trying to sneak around. I really love them!
