"These shoes are by far my favorites in my closet at the moment. When I first got them and slipped them on, the first thing I noticed was the amazing way they shape to your feet. Be warned- these shoes have more of an arch than any trendy shoe like this around. It surprised me but luckily this only made them more comfortable and far easier to break in. Like any shoe with a back like this, be prepared to wear your socks sticking out, which I've found can actually be done artfully depending on your style, or suffer the blistery consequences, but other than that, I would recommend these shoes any day."
