Wore these while participating in the SF Pride Parade. If that isn't a true test of the comfort and durability of a shoe, I don't know what is!!<br />They were incredibly comfortable and fit well, even though I have 2 very oddly sized feet (yes, separate sizes). The silver finish didn't rub or abrade even while I was fidgeting in the car.<br /><br />The heels supported my heavy arse along some grueling urban terrain (some SF streets are TERRIBLE!!!), without damage to the tread or sinking. They also were light-weight enough that I didn't feel like they were weighing down my footsteps, even when my legs were so tired and rubbery that I wasn't sure if I was going to make it back to the car!<br /><br />I was hesitant because I'd ordered a pair of these in black earlier in the month and a strap came unglued the 2nd time I wore them (test-driving cars, so not much actual walking!!) but I took the chance and was thrilled with the result. If there was a good-quality parts/higher-end version of this style, I'd buy a pair in every colour they come in, I swear. Till then, though, I am happy to get by with these.<br /><br />(For the parade I decided to glue glitter to the white parts of the sole and heel. Used regular craft spray glue and fine glitter. Did 2 coats of each with plenty of time to dry in between. The sole and heel took the glue well, giving me great adhesion. The spray didn't degrade or melt the plastic in the shoe, and the glitter is still on, even after the parade and moving to another city. Cheap shoes that fit and can be customised inexpensively!!!)
