These shoes are adorable. I purchased the brown shade and came back to see if they had the black ones back in stock in my size. I customized the laces and pom-poms to suit me better (unlaced then re-laced them differently) and received several comments on how cute these shoes are. The cute factor is obvious, but the COMFORT was a lovely surprise. I can honestly recommend this shoe. My only issue is that the pom-poms look and feel very real (like bunny fur) and I hope they are just a really good fake fur because I boycott stores that sell real fur.
