"I have lupus, RA, and fibromyalgia and the only shoes I EVER wear are very supportive sneakers!! I needed a pair of comfortable but cute heels for a big fundraiser I was attending. I always wear "old lady" shoes and even them I wind up taking them off because they hurt my feet and joints! The heel is high enough to look like you have a heel on but low enough to be able to actually walk in them without feeling as though you're a baby giraffe walking for the first time!!! I usually wear a solid 8 or 8.5 because my foot is wider, but I actually got a 7.5! They fit like a glove and I feel like I'm wearing sneakers! I love them!!!!"
