The fit and look of the shoes were great. The problem with them was that they broke when I was going up a set of steps. I was wearing them in my house, like I do with all new shoes, to break them in. So....I went down stairs to check on some laundry, and everything was fine. But....when I came back up the steps, one shoe broke. It split on the outside of the toe area. I'm glad that it happened before I wore them to the event I had planned them for. I have several other pairs of Ivanka Trump leather pumps, and there has never been any problem. I have several other pairs of patent leather pumps by other manufacturers, and there has never been any problems. I guess I just got a bad pair, so I sent them back. Too bad they didn't survive an hour being worn in my house, I'd hate to think how they would've done in the real world.
