"First, this is a beautiful shoe. I bought it to wear at the office and really liked its looks which is why I didn't return it. However, the toe box is very low (and I don't have large toes) and puts a lot of pressure on the top of my toenails. Makes it hard to walk. I'm going to have to figure out a way to stretch these out somehow because they are beautiful shoes albeit quite painful at the moment. Also, it was not clear from the description that there is a 1/4" platform on this shoe. Keep that in mind if ordering."
