Aerosoles Hedge Maple The first time I bought shoes online and it was a pleasant surprise
December 30, 2012
Reviewer: Linda from Healesville, near Melbourne, Victoria, Australia
I wanted some nice looking shoes with a wedge heel. But most shoes I had tried in shops, the sole and the heel were rock solid with no flexibility at all, like walking on solid blocks of wood. Uncomfortable and dangerous. I searched the internet for flexible wedge heels and found aerosoles. There were lots of reviews saying that they indeed had a flexible sole, and were very comfortable, even wearing them all day. I was still nervous about buying things online because of the risk of a security breach, because of the cost of having to send them back if they didn't fit, etc etc. I took a risk especially because I am in Australia and they were coming from America. I was amazed that they arrived only 4 (business) days after I had ordered them. I ordered them on a Thursday and they arrived the following Tuesday !. Second they fit perfectly. Third. The sole is indeed very flexible and comfortable - the first time I wore them was to a workchristmasparty where I danced rock and roll - fast with a lot of turns. This is a test for any shoe, especially for brand new shoes but I was delighted to find I could dance well in these aerosoles. I had no problems and I love them. I recommend them to anyone. I would buy more aerosoles.
Wears this shoe: Out dancing, out to dinner, would wear them anywhere where I want to look good.
