I loved the first pair that I got in the metallic bronze so much that I went ahead and purchased two more pairs in black and metallic pewter. As the other reviews mentioned, these shoes are incredibly comfortable and easy to wear with just about any outfit. I have medium width feet, and found them to be true to size. The medium heel is quite stable, even without a heel strap to hold the shoe in place. The leather is also quite supple and soft, and the metallics dramatic, but muted enough to not look too tawdry or flashy.
