Let’s talk about these patent leather stilettos that promise both glam and comfort. The shiny finish? Absolutely eye-catching—perfect for weddings or date nights. The 2.75-inch heel is a sweet spot: tall enough to elongate legs but not a death trap (I survived a 4-hour party without limping!).

**The Good:** True to size for me, but reviews are mixed—some say size down. The pointed toe doesn’t crush my wide feet, and the slingback strap stays put. Bonus: no blisters! I paired these with a slip dress and felt like a ’90s supermodel.

**The Bad:** One wearer mentioned bruising from the strap (ouch!). Also, the patent leather scuffs easily—watch out for sidewalk battles. A few buyers got dented pairs, so inspect yours upon arrival.

**Verdict:** If you’re a heel pro, these are a steal for the price. New to stilettos? Maybe start with shorter wears. I’d buy again—but only in black (hides scuffs better!).
