"I absolutely love these shoes. They are so comfortable and I get compliments every time I wear them....here's the bad part. The first time I wore them, all of the gold studs on one shoe were completely gone. In addition, the soles have not held up well, (I've had to glue them back on) and the leather wears extremely fast. In theory, these shoes were designed well, but executed poorly and were not made to my quality standards."
