I was looking for a flat with a bit of heel to wear with jeans.  These are perfect for that, and could also be worn with dressier clothing, especially slacks.  The leather is rich-looking and high quality.  The 1-1/4" heel is just enough to raise my jeans' legs off the floor (I'm short), and by doing that, extends the pants line making me look taller.  The shoe is a perfect fit for me (size 7 medium).  If you wear a wide shoe, it may be too tight for you.  It fits, as others have said, "like a glove."  Your foot is snug in the leather, but it is not uncomfortable.  I've only worn them twice, and I believe they may stretch out a bit more, but even now they are comfortable.  I am very pleased, and would recommend.
