"I bought these shoes probably 2 years ago. They are definitely meant for only special occasions such as formals and dances, not for a night on the town. The fabric is sturdy for light use but definitely not meant to be worn all the time. They are a good heel height, not too high. Comfortable enough for a few hours at proms or formals, but by the end of the night, your feet will be tired. They need more padding on the toes if you want to wear them ALL night,"
