"I would give this product no stars but that is not an option, please avoid this style/brand!!! I purchased this brand/style twice and both times the shoes fell apart within a few wearings. The first pair I bought I wore at work (a completely carpeted area) and within a week the shoes began to squeak. I brought them to a local shoe repair shop and was told the squeak couldn't be fixed. The shoes had been on sale so I threw them away, I figured it was just a defective pair. Since I liked to style some much I tried ordering them again this time online. The second pair I paid full price for and within two days of wearing in my office (again a fully carpeted area), the heel came off. Granted I could glue the cheap plastic heel piece back on but the point is for $70 I expect the shoes to last a bit longer than two days."
