I don't like on. and off many times a day. This is what I have, I like the ankle support after breaking ankle 3 1/2 years ago. I wear them dancing, you got to have leather bottoms for that. I don’t like the new square toe boots, don’t like slip on boots either.

Wore nearly daily for close to 10 years before they finally wore through. 2 sets of heels. But the sole was still good. Super comfortable. Last edited by Cheesy; 01/13/20.
