text: These shoes are awesome. The cork sole is great it gives plenty of cushion without making the shoe heavy. I am actually very surprised at how comfortable these shoes are. The seam of the peep toe does rub on my big toe but that is the only down side. Oh and well maybe not using stairs with these. That is just me though. These are a great HIGH heel shoe but it doesn't look trashy the way some platform shoes can look. I love these with a maxi dress or skirt. The yellow is bright vivid sun yellow. Not an orange, neon, gold or lime yellow. It is a true yellow which is ecactly what I wanted.  This is a great fun shoe. Be prepared though, if you are not used to super high platforms you may be bumping your head. I am 5'8&#34; these easily make me 6 ft. So yeah some head bumps but still awesome shoes.
