Worth every penny
I’ve had a pair of these for a few months so I thought I’d write a quick review.Positives:They look amazing and I receive lots of compliments on them, in fact the first day I wore them a client complimented them. Never had that with other shoes.They are beautifully made and stand up well to multiple use, with a bit of love mine still look wonderful (image attached). As these have a two tone finish, I use a tan polish for the body and then finish the nose with dark brown. Looks a treat!The additional height is nice to have, although even without that these shoes really are a pleasure to own and wear.Given the quality and finish, they are superb value for money.Negatives:They take some getting used to. As the calf muscles are contracted a little, one’s gait tends to be affected initially. But persevere as it doesn’t take long to become familiar with them.The sole angle means that pressure is applied to the Achilles’ tendon. I bought some little pads to stick inside the heel - worked wonders.——All in all an exceptional pair of shoes and a nice way to stand a little taller.

Beautifully made but elevation just too high
Loved the quality. Be guided by EU sizing as this was the most accurate rather than a UK listed size. Quality leather which will require a certain amount of breaking in as it is of the stiffer kind. So why did I return this beautiful pair of shoes?...I think the internal construction is superbly thought through and accomplished, with a cleverly concealed wedge of plastic which ever so slightly yields resulting in a comfortable walk. However, 2.75 inches is just a little too much height gain to be comfortable, with a result which changes the way you walk. Two inches would have been perfect and created a much more comfortable angle for the foot. I may have gotten used to them but couldn't risk going outside to give them a thorough test.

Great quality but get half a size or a size bigger than normal and be careful when you try them on in case you have to return it
Great quality and love the design but they are slightly small, you need to get at least half a size bigger and be careful when you try them on. If you 'damage' the surface a little bit you won't be able to return them.Also, I do not know how someone will be able to try this on as recommended by the seller without wearing them at least in the house and see how it feels. To a lot of us, this kind of shoes is something new and it may feel strange at the beginning. I hope the leather will loosen in time.

Good quality but too small
Good quality product but size much too small for UK size 9

Good quality. Terribly uncomfortable.
The product is of very good quality, but wearing it is a complete torture. The angle is too steep and is like walking on high heels. I truly regret having spent so much money for something I will not use ever again…

Well worth it a great addition to my wardrobe
I'm a size 10 and after reading other reviews saying the shoes were to tight I decided to go a head and order a 10 anyway. They fit perfectly and I have already worn them on two social occasions. The shoes look exactly the same as "normal" black dress shoes and you really can not tell they are height increasing either when wearing them or when you take them off so you can be confident nobody will know.

Design is excellent. Can’t rate enough
I am writing a review nearly 1 year later after buying and wearing routinely. I am impressed with these shoes, quality is noticeable. Design is excellent. Can’t rate enough, one of the best pairs I have ever owned, AND it increases my height

For Dinner Dates not really for daily use
They have height built into an insert in the heel. So take some getting used to for walking. Buy a size larger as they put pressure on your toes due to elevated heel only. Not for daily use - but equalise height when girlfriend wears higher heels for dinner dates. How girls do this on a daily basis is a continuing mystery.
