Jeffrey Campbell Shadow Stud


Purchased from Solestruck.com at a reduced price. These shoes were originally $250 but were bought for $125. They came in the JC box with the girl painted in water colours and were wrapped in cellophane/dust bag.

The shoe is made of all over leather in the colour blue silver mermaid. It is definitely a blue coloured shoe with a hint of silver as seen in the pictures but when you look at the colours close up in the light there is also a lot of purple undertone as well. Now to the studs, there are a variety of different one. You have flat studs on the inside of the shoe, tree studs covering the front/outer side and the curve and then (SHARP !!) spikes circling the top of the shoe.

Time to answer the question on everybody's lips are these 6 1/2 inch heel and 2 1/4 inch platform shoes easy to walk in ? The simple answer is yes, although you can't tell unless you wear them all your foot is supported apart from a little part of your heel. There is no pain or discomfort when wearing these shoes. If I could describe how it feels I would say it's like walking around on the balls of your feet. I would recommend walking a round the house on hard flat surfaces to start with just so you can get a feel of the shoe, once you go outside thing become tricky, uneven surfaces make it hard for you to keep balance. I find keeping good posture and leaning forward ever so slightly help me stay up right and on my feet.

I ordered these shoes in US 10/UK 7.5. The website states that these shoes run half a size small. So I went and order them in my half size and they fit perfectly.
