I went ahead and ordered a pair of shoes, the three-strap pump in the animal pattern. I love them! They have a generous fit (read a they run a bit big) and they are very well made. I know they are not leather, but I do not plan to wear them for lots of walking. My feet do not perspire a lot, and also I would never wear a pair of pumps without hosiery anyway.
I'm glad I tried this brand and might go back for more!
