text: I wasn't expecting the shoes to be so clunky. I have narrow feet and although I usually fit into most shoes, these are incredibly wide, and the heels are super bulky. The straps don't cross as nicely as they do in the picture.<br /><br />The leather is extremely stiff and very squeaky when I walked around to try them on, although I'm sure this improves with more wear. I will be returning, but I'd recommend them for people with wider feet.
