I bought these shoes because they were cheap and I needed some red flats to wear with a dress to a wedding. The shoes are SUPER flat and provide no arch support (even less than similar flats you can buy at Target or Payless) and by the end of the night, my feet were hella sore. The shoes scuffed up really bad and already had some color/paint missing from the toes after one night. Since they were so cheap I threw them away in the hotel room and did not bring them back with me. All in all, they got the job done but I wouldn't buy them for everyday shoes.
