Beautiful even on hobbit feet - This was the most expensive pair of shoes I've bought to date. I have sensitive feet with disproportionately long toes and so cannot wear ordinary heels that shove the foot down into the shoe bed. So it was important for me to find a really good pair that would be comfortable enough and stylish enough to get good use out of them. They were fabulous coming out of the box, a beautiful blood-red in a very high-quality patent. The "light padding" inside is not what I would call padding at all, unfortunately, as much as a thin sock would protect your foot from impact on a slab of concrete. So I put in a pair of gel pads made for pumps and that made the balls of my feet feel better, but the top of the shoe was seriously pushing against the knuckle of my big toe in a very painful way. I usually wear 8 1/2 and ordered the 38 1/2 after reading the advice on this website...after trying these on I took a long time to decide whether to exchange them for a larger size, have them stretched by a local shoe store, or return them entirely. I couldn't bring myself to give them up! Oh, the power of sexy red patent! After consulting with the local shoe store I decided not to have them professionally stretched, but wore them for a couple hours at a time at home, while my feet were unswollen and propped up and I could stretch them gradually to the shape of my feet because I was worried the shoe store would stretch them too much, and then I really wouldn't be able to return or wear them. Point of note about the shoe store--they said these shoes have a lot more "heel bed" (?) than the average heel, which means that the heel stays in place and your foot doesn't slide forward. (I should also say that the store doesn't sell this brand; that's why I went heel-shopping online in the first place.) After doing this for a few sessions I finally wore them out in public, and oh my GOD, they fit like a dream and I got so many compliments on them! Dancing in them was incredibly easy, though I was so happy with them that I might have overdone it a tad--the balls of my feet were sore after about 4 hours of dancing. That's hardly something to complain about in my opinion! Long story short, the patents took some time, effort and adjustment to customize, but I am so glad I did. If I can only have one pair of high heels that I can wear dancing for 4 hours straight, this is a good pick.
