I wanted to try some heels and I've had my eyes on these for some time. I love the look and in person they are even more beautiful. I am glad I looked at reviews so I knew to watch my step because these are slick. They have a grooved texture on the front but it does little to help with traction so beware of this. I will likely sand them a bit to add more grip. That's the only negative and why I chose to give these 4 stars. Other than that surprisingly comfy though to be honest I've not worn them a ton yet just walking around the house. I would recommend these.
