First of all, I have to say that Aerosoles are my favorite shoes! I have never been disappointed in any pair I have bought....except now. I had been looking for the perfect shoes for my son's wedding. I bought several pairs and decided to wear another pair I already purchased. But I thought these shoes were so cute that I just had to have them and thought they would look better that the shoes I had!  I also planned to wear them to the rehearsal dinner I was hosting. Not having had an opportunity to break them in, I went ahead and wore them. I was on my feet for four hours and my feet were throbbing by the time I finally got to sit down. I still wanted to wear them for the wedding, if even just to get down the aisle, but after 10 minutes I took them off and opted for the other shoes.<br /><br />The shoes are cute but very uncomfortable. I have to keep them now but will wear them only when I am not going to do much standing or walking. If you don't have a lot of standing or walking to do, then maybe they would be okay. But otherwise I would not recommend them which is unfortunate because Aerosoles are usually good shoes.
