text: I hate writting a bad review but these shoes are just not the greatest. The platform is so high they look like Mini mouse shoes..I am into pole dancing and pole fitness and wear platform shoes to work out in all the time.i had a hard time walking in these. My toes felt very crushed in these..Amazon was wounderful with the return so give them a try...Shoes are a hard thing to buy without trying on...they might work for you
