When I ordered these boots, I felt I "settled" - they were the best at this price point but, fortunately, they look much better in person. I heard they run big but my regular size fit perfectly. The pubished heel height, however, is incorrect - it feels like 6 inches when you're walking in them (and I'm no rookie). The description says the heel is 5 inches and the platform is 1 and 1/4" - that would make it 3 and 3/4" drop for your actual foot. I measured the heel myself - the platform in the front of the boot is 1 inch and the heel at it's highest point is 5 and 3/4" - that is 4 and 3/4" drop that you will be walking on. There's no doubt that it looks sexy as hell but be prepared and please be careful!

I love heels, so don't get me wrong. When I got these boots in the mail (in a timely manner) I was extremely disappointed when I put them on and couldn't even walk around my room in them. The heel is more like a death spike and is about 6 inches tall, and even though they have some platform action, it really doesn't make much of a difference, they are WAY TOO TALL! Now I admit, they look great, and in theory they are great, but they aren't functionally useful. If, however, you don't plan on standing in them or if you frequent bars with poles, they would work out great for you! If they hadn't been at all attractive I would have given them 1 star, but since they are aesthetically pleasing somewhat I gave them 2 stars. Boo.
