smoke-free home. size 9. were these once this summer to a wedding. has a little bit of a platform to it and then a heel. as you can tell from the bottom the bandolino soul as an even worn off of it yet. bought these from Macy's. had been $59 and I got on sale for 29. the inside material is rubbing off because the leather on top was flexing. please see photos. not visible from the outside at all. thanks for checking out my closet. I have 150 pairs of shoes so please check out my others. bundle up for discounts.
