Great shoe-- for the price, it's unreal. They really do fit true to size. Wider feet beware. As for the platform, there's just enough cushion so it doesn't feel like you are walking on hard concrete. Even for the faint of heart like myself, I plan to wear these on my wedding day and I know they will withstand a few hours on my feet.

This shoe is beautiful! They make my legs look gorgeous. However, I ordered a size 7 and they were too tight on the top of my foot and I had to return them for a 7 1/2 which look slightly long at the front. So I couldn't get a great fit, but the 7 1/2 are comfortable and fit well enough to wear out for the evening.
