text: I just have to say it--these shoes are horrible! Ladies, please take heed in my message and steer clear. First off, the shoes squeezed my pinky toes, and even with that finding I decided to give them a chance, believing that they just needed time to stretch out. I normally wear a 5.5 or 6 in heels, but I ordered a 6.5 just to give my feet some room (I have small and wide feet). Nevertheless, these still felt tight. I began to feel pain within the first few minutes of wearing these shoes, AND the arch is very odd--it feels as if your foot is on a very steep incline and is just waiting to break. Finally, these shoes skid with no remorse. If you're up for an adrenaline rush, wear these on a rainy day. I didn't make it very far in these shoes, and couldn't wait to get rid of them. Huge disappointment. I truly wanted to love these as they look so nice.
