These shoes were purchased at Offie.co.uk in the sale, this sale is still on. They were originally £120 but I bought them for £60.
They arrived in the standard JC crossword box and came in dust bags.
Ok down to the nitty gritty. I purchased these shoes in a UK 7/European 40. In my opinion they do run true to size, although the shoe is narrow I have found that after a few wear around the house for an hour or two at a time the shoes have stretched and now fit comfortably and there is no rubbing of the toes.
Now for material talk, The heel of the shoe is covered in black leather, a very thick sturdy heel that measure in at 5 1/2 inches. As you can see by the pictures the front of the shoe is also black leather, The only disadvantage I have found with this is you constantly need to polish it as it scuffs extremely easily (unless I'm just a very clumsy person ha). The platform at the front of the shoe measures at 2 1/2 inches. The rest of the shoe is obviously the tanned cheetah print I think this is made out of pig skin but I am not 100% sure.
One last thing I need to mention before I go is that as you can see these shoes are lace up, This is definitely an advantage as you can wear them as loose or at tight as you like to your comfort. With them being lace ups it offer great support for the foot and ankle as well, so hopefully there will be no embarrassing flat on the face moments !!
