text: I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the product for the price. The pleather is actually very supple and smooth and did not look cheap. Though I wore these all day as a bridesmaid, they were not initially comfortable. The heel is very hard but the addition of some cheap, clear insoles made the shoes much more comfortable.  Also, the flat gold flat fake &#34;clasp&#34; that holds the chain hook hit right on the outside of my ankle bones. That area was slightly bruised the next day after 8+ hours of wear. If you are wearing a long dress with these shoes, prepare for snagging. The clasp/chain snagged on the thule of my dress several times while sitting down thankfully I did not see any tears.<br /><br />Overall, the quality was better than I expected and for the price the shoe lasted me through a wedding and will be worn again for special occasions. Definitely plan to buy a pair of insoles.
