Bought these for Appalachian style clogging. I ordered purple and white and was disappointed that those weren't available, so decided on black and white and was disappointed that those weren't available, so ordered black. Almost cancelled the order because so much time had passed and I didn't think I'd receive them in time for an upcoming event, but when I have them a deadline, they got the shoes to my doorstep. I'm just starting to use these and like the sound and fit so far. I'm concerned that they are already creased at the top and worry how they will hold up and what they will look like in a few months. That said, I'm excited to experiment with these (lower heel than I've danced in prior) and think they are great for the price. I have small bunions and the shoes still fit well.
