Adorable!

These are both the cutest and most comfortable heels I've ever own. I didn't feel any discomfort walking on city sidewalks while wearing these heels. Will definitely purchase more shoes in the future from American Duchess.

Low heel, more comfort

The heel is lower so I expect to have good comfort when I dance with these at the Balls I go to. Regarding size: I'm a reliable size 8, medium width. The rounded toe area provides enough room for my toes to stay comfortable (pointed toe shoes are more of a challenge for me). I don't have a high arch so there is no problem with buttoning the shoes. Do get a button hook if you don't already have one.

Simply beautiful.

This charming and well-constructed shoe is just the right height, comfortable and simply beautiful.

Great for the stage

As a violinist, it’s hard to find elegant shoes that are comfortable enough to stand and balance in while performing.
These shoes have really come in handy! They are so well balanced that I don’t feel like I’m wearing any heal.
I recommend them for anyone who has to be on their feet for a while, and is not willing to compromise comfort or range of motion.

The shoes looked a bit more delicate in the pictures than they are in real life. The leather is thickly layered and stiff. The height of the toe box seems a little excessive. I had to wear substantial socks with these, which is not what I had envisioned.
But these are small issues when compared to the high quality of these shoes!

Feel good, look pretty

Good arch support and they stay on my feet when I walk because of the straps. The color is a little darker in person than the photos show, however. This may be the result of using flash to take the photos.
