I saw a friend wearing these gorgeous shoes and recognized the style as Miz Mooz right away. She had the brown and turquoise pair, so when I decided to get some I went for the whiskey colored. My friend told me she found hers to be very comfortable, but when mine arrived it didn't take me long to figure out I was never going to wear them. Had I been shopping in an actual shoe store, I never would have spent money on them in the first place. The leather around the toes was tight and uncomfortable, though probably would have softened eventually (after giving me some blisters, that is), but the weird part was that although they fit perfectly length-wise, I found my heel slipping out of the back of the shoe. The buckle was as tight as it could be across my instep, so I don't really understand why they didn't fit well. It's like they were made for wide-heeled, narrow-toed feet or something! Also, I felt like a horse walking around my apartment because of the sound the wooden heels make. Bottom line, they're just not for me. Thankfully, returning them was no hassle.
