I own these sandals in both colors (black and titanium)and I find them amazingly comfortable and stylish enough to get through all but the most dressy occasions. I first purchased the titanium color over a year ago. The soft silver-gold/beige-grey shade is the perfect neutral summer color that goes with just about everything. The stacked heel is 3" high. These sandals contain many "hidden" comfort features. The heel strap as well as the strap across the instep are adjustable. The foot-bed is heavily padded and molded to cradle the foot. There is a significant arch support that no one can see but you will appreciate after wearing these shoes all day. The sole is durable rubber. The straps are padded and do not rub. The fit is true to size. I wish Aetrex offered other women's "dress" styles as attractive as these....I'd buy them in a minute.

Fits great, feels good, looks nice. Great price too. As with any heels, they start hurting after a while. They could have used some padding for the ball of the feet.

This is the second pair of these shoes that I have purchased and both have had the same problem. The insole falls apart after only a month. They have a small oval pad glued to the heel which is very comfortable, but comes un-glued with wear and all the white padding starts coming apart and goes all over the place. I have tried crazy gluing the pad back down, but it just keeps coming off. It's too bad they can't fix this problem because they are such a comfortable heeled sandal.

Very comfortable. I love them!

I do not wear heels because I have too much pain in my feet and back, but was required to for an event. So I researched the very best heels for plantar fasciitis and back pain. I reluctantly purchased 5 different pair & hoped for something to not kill my feet. These are by FAR my favorite because there is a nice cushion & my feet & back seemed happy...to my shock & surprise! I wore them to the 8 hr event & my feet thought I was in my regular shoes. Then I wore them every evening on a 9 day cruise for dinner & dancing. I felt feminine & comfortable. I can finally wear heels! Love these (sent the others back).

This shoe looks better on the picture than in real life. While the inner sole is really comfortable (those plastic inner soles burn my feet), the shoe is heavy and the straps while adjustable, don't really coordinate their adjustments. I have a very high arch and a very narrow heel. I couldn't get it to adjust to really fit my foot. Also, the heel is too high to be really comfortable for me. In addition, the shoe is a bit clunky looking on the foot in the black color. It probably looks better in a lighter color.

I have a lot of foot/joint/skin issues, and have to be particular when it comes to shoes. I thought I would try these, as I have oher Aetrex shoes and they fit like a dream. These were no exception. Needed a pair of "high" heels for our son's wedding, and hated even looking (I used to wear 4 & 5" heels at one time in my life). I decided to do an Amazon search (my "go to"), and found these. On sale. With a free return, if need be. There was no need. I love them! Stylish, comfortable, fit very well! I even wear them to work, and don't have any problems whatsoever. The straps that go behind and across the foot have velcro, so they can be adjusted.

These sandals are perfect for the office. Comfortable and the heels are not too high for running around. I typically wear a wide width but these fit me just fine.
