Was really excited to get these, shipping took like two weeks (if I remember correctly), finally got them in a carton shoe box, opened them and was honestly a little bummed. In person they DO look like the picture buuuuut like in a cheaper version. I was planning to wear them to a wedding but ended opting out cuz they looked somewhat cheap and did not match the rest of my very-formal outfit. A month has gone by and I still haven't found an occasion to wear them so I can't comment on how comfy or not they are, but they seem sturdy and when I tried them on I didn't notice any discomfort. Not really thinking of recommending them to a friend.<br />EDIT: Not the most comfortable, but also not the most uncomfortable. They are a little big.
