Bruno Menegatti 1534309 Cool shoe

I have not had the opportunity to wear this shoe yet but i have tried them on. They feel a little big, but i think an insole will fix that. They are absolutly georgous and very well made. You can smell the quality of the leather, and a very good ridged bottom should make them easier to walk in, although i am nervous about the heel height. Normally a 4" heel is my max. But they are just too cool looking to not try.
Wears this shoe: probably will only be able to wear for short stints.

This is the exact shoe for which I've been looking. It's perfect except for one BIG ISSUE! I needed a shoe about this height that I could wear all day comfortably at work, and this one fit the bill. I love the way it feels; I love that it is suede, so it will take me through our warm autumn, but I absolutely detest the sole under the toes. I normally do not buy a black sandal unless it has black under the toes. This one is even worse than normal -- it's not even tan. It's a very ugly institutional blue/grey! Ick!!!! Please make these again with a black sole. I have many shoes that aren't completely black, but are under the toes, and that is fine, but this ugly feature takes away from the stylish studs and other attributes of this shoe. Otherwise, I would have easily given it 5 stars!
