WOW -These shoes are amazering! They are stunning, unique, and versatile.One of my favorite features and selling points - you can wear them two ways: snap them down or unsnap and zip them up to the ankles. The snaps and zipper are very durable.I like the clear bit at the bottom of the heel, however my biggest (and only) complaint so far is the color of the bottom of the shoe. I don’t think that the tan goes with the black rest of the shoe at all. I am thinking of painting it a different color with some model paint. I love the alien, dinosaur, spine, whatever bone heel:).Some reviews reported broken heels so I am a bit weary of that happening as they do seem a bit fragile. I have only tested them around the house and they felt a bit wobbly so I will be careful to put most of the pressure on the balls of my feet - heaven help me if they break while I’m wearing them out. UPDATE: Wore these out one long night and they were comfortable and not wobbly or fragile feeling in the slightest. Plus compliments galore!IMPORTANT: These run big! I am a size 10 but had to order a 9 since that was the largest size offered. After going through some reviews and reading that they do run a size too large I was sold, though I’m sorry that is not a positive for many shoppers. The 9 feels like a 10 and even has a little extra room at the tips, but I love the fit and find them very comfortable as heels go. Despite the intimidating appearance these are very comfortable shoes – if you get the right size.Also, they arrived fast and packaged extremely well. Came in nice shoebox and each shoe has its own “dust cover” bag, such as quality purses do. I guess these can be used to protect them while in your closet, shoe stand, or wherever you store your shoes.Can’t wait to wear these with my leather pants!I highly recommend these - Just keep in mind to order a size down.
