Madden Girl Women's Getta Pump

Some years I collect heels, and other years I purge heels. Somewhere in the mix, I forgot that I love Madden Girl pumps, and I forgot that I never bought a pair of plain black high heels. Amazon to the rescue! A friend inspired me to buy platforms and I only agreed to buy if I could find platforms that were not obnoxious, and these are perfect.First, I fell in love with Getta's simplicity. Second, I fell in love with the price. After choosing black out of practicality (I need them for a gown that I am wearing in a few months), I combed the reviews for sizing recommendations. Big thank you to the ladies before me who recommended a half size smaller! My narrow size 8 feet fit perfectly in the 7.5 pumps. In the near future I will be wearing these all day for a special event, so I am breaking these in now.I have learned that the shank is nice and sturdy, I feel and appreciate their support. The toe box fits my feet well (my skinny feet are easily compressible and my 2nd and 3rd toes are both longer than my big toe), so I do not need to stretch them out. The heel is solid and doesn't feel like it is going to snap from under me. The vamp is a little short, and I don't like seeing toe cleavage, so I will just keep my feet off of the banquet table like a normal adult. The toe is upturned a little bit, and it makes walking very easy and comfortable. The sole's traction is minimal, but not slick, just use caution if you're not used to the soles. Otherwise all of the stitches and constructive details are well done, nothing seems to have been overlooked.I am very pleased with these pumps, and have already purchased a second color.A longer vamp would be nice, but it's not a big deal. I look forward to buying a third pair.

I ordered this shoe in black matte and nude. Both look absolutely gorgeous - very high end looking shoe for an unbelievably good price.As many people have mentioned/complained about - the sizing is the tricky part about this show. I have narrow and relatively small feet. I normally wear a size 7 in open toe shoes/heels and a size 7.5 in closed toe shoes/heels. In this shoe - I wear a size 6.5!!!I went to try these on at another store and I'm so glad I did. The 7's were still to big for me - each step I tried to take my heel came right out of the shoe. The reason for this is pretty simple - the shape of the toe-box for these pumps is less narrow than most heels which means that your foot and toes slide further up into the toe-box. For narrow footed people, this may make the difference of at least half a size. For me, it was a whole size because my toes are almost the exact shape of the toe-box meaning my feet slide forward quite a bit.I tried the 6.5 on in the light blue at the store and they fit perfectly, so I ordered the black and nude form online assuming it would be the same. To my surprise they are just the tiniest bit tight - not quite uncomfortably so, but I can see how wearing them for several hours might become uncomfortable. So far, I've worn them for a couple hours at a time with no complaints.All-in-all the shoes are sooooo sexy. I fell in love with them immediately! The black matte is not as sexy looking as the nude patent - knowing this, I may end up purchasing the black patent as well because they seriously a show stoppers. I have thin legs with narrow ankles and I'm telling you - my lower legs/feet now become red carpet worthy in these shoes - yes, they are THAT sexy looking in an understated "I'm not trying too hard" kind of way. They also work with just about any and every outfit. They can easily be played up or down - that's quite a win.Unfortunately I cannot give it 5 stars because the sizing is a bit complicated and may take people a few times to get it right. If you can find this shoe in a store and try them on there I would HIGHLY recommend doing so. That way you can see if this shoe will fit right for you. I imagine if you have wider feet this is NOT YOUR SHOE!!! If you have more narrow/petite feet - this shoe is likely to be a winner!!***I will update this post after I've worn them for a full evening out.

I bought these shoes in 10 Nude and they were gorgeous! I was worried, as I usually wear between a 10 and an 11. The heel was a perfect height for someone who wants to be fancy but doesn't wear high heels often. When I first put them on, I thought 'no way these are going to fit'. I had to kinda shove my heel into the shoe, and the toe box was really tight. After walking around in them for a few minutes, the heel definitely loosened up, but the toe box was still really tight. I really like these shoes and the way they look, but the comfortability is a serious issue for people with wider feet! If you don't have a wide foot, then these should be great! I'm going to keep them and try my best to stretch them out. I'll update as I go!**UPDATE**I wore these to graduation and MAN OH MAN my feet were tore up an hour in. The toe box loosened up some since i stretched them, but jeez. I don't think i'd wanna go through that pain again. Its been a few days and my heels still hurt! MAKE A WIDER TOE BOX MADDEN!
