Somewhat unconventionally, I purchased this shoe in white to wear to my wedding (with a formal bridal gown). I was aware that the shoe was a bit too casual for my dress, but for me it was so worth it. My priorities in searching for wedding
shoes were a) at least a 3 inch heel, as my husband is a whole foot taller than me (and bridesmaids both 5 inches taller than me) and b) comfort. I did not want to be in excruciating pain at the end of my wedding day. Finding a shoe that met these two criteria was nearly impossible, until I found this one! I knew it was on the too-casual side, but figured that they wouldn't be visible very often anyway, considering that my dress came to the floor. I am very happy with my choice. My
shoes were visible more often than I had hoped (it rained heavily and I had to continually hold my dress up outside). However, I was comfortable all day. And now I have a really cool pair of gorgeous sandals I will actually wear again, as opposed to a pinchy pair of white satin pumps. I also got several compliments on them that people thought they were a young, fun, cute surprise under the formal gown. Of course, people always compliment the bride, but whatever, I think the comments were sincere. Also, the
shoes are beautifully made with excellent workmanship. The leather is incredibly soft! I wish I could get them in every color!

I've been meaning to write a review for this shoe as it is the most comfortable heel I own. The 3 inch heel is barely noticeable. I am able to salsa in this heel with no trouble and there was no break-in period whatsoever. I bought the black heel and wanted the white one so bad, but alas my size sold out. Zappos sent me this shoe the next day and they are as always very professional. And once again, Born is my favorite brand!

I love these
shoes. They are so comfortable. I wore them to a wedding for the first wearing and was surprised that they felt so good all day and night!

These are really cute. I got them both in patent leather and soft leather. I notice they are not as cushy as the other Born
shoes, but still, comfort and style is the primary focus.

Let me just say that these are wonderful
shoes. My first thought (and maybe yours, too) about Born
shoes is that they are comfy old lady
shoes or comfy tree hugger
shoes...Wrong! These
shoes are very stylish and extremely comfortable. I love the little detail on the T-strap and the heel height feels like you are wearing flats. A GREAT shoe that I recommend to everyone.

Absolutely love the shoe! I got it in brown and it looks gorgeous. It's incredibly comfortable if you choose the right size. I am usually an 8.5 or 39 European size. I got talked into buying a 9 by a salesperson...a big mistake. On the actual box it states that a 9 is a 40.5 European! I have since ordered an 8 and it fits perfectly, not too short and not too narrow. My feet are a proper 8.5/39 Euro, slightly on a wider side if you are tossing up between the sizes, go with the smaller size. The
shoes come with 2 lovely shoe
bags, too, a nice bonus. Good luck!

These are very pretty (bought them in the gold color) and mostly comfortable. There is not a lot of "support" due to the strappy-ness of the sandal so I dont know that I could wear them all-day long, but they are great for shorter periods of time.

I ordered these in two colors (black and tan) and am so, so glad I did... they are a super comfy, super sexy, super practical dress heel for summer! The leather (including lined footbed and wrapped heel) is soft and beautiful. I love how much foot shows in these - they are very flattering on! They look great with anything - pants, jeans, skirts, dresses, even shorts! The heel is high, but walkable and sturdy. My only complaint is that the ball of the sole is rubber, but the heel has a plastic cap which makes it a bit slick (I almost wiped out when I walked full steam into my tile kitchen)...
guess theyll need to be scuffed up or replaced with rubber.

Love this shoe, bought it in black. Great fit and true to size. I am not a big heel wearer, so I was hesitant, but very comfortable.

Fantastic!!! This shoe is too cute and lives up to Born quality and comfort. Perfect with skirts and jeans alike! Lots of compliments on these. Of course Zappos service is the best!
