They comfortable, but in my experience they don't hold up. Then again, I've only had one pair and they were mostly cloth with that straw thing as the base. I probably wouldn't spend a lot of money on a pair. That said, the Kors pair wouldn't come home with my no matter how cute ithey are. You won't break an ankle! They are easier on wear than heels because you don't have to workd as hard to balance in them.
