I love the heel height and each of the special features do contribute to the heels being more comfortable than you anticipate they will be. After a long evening, my feet tired but nothing like I expected. Initially I ordered an 8 because my feet run a little wide but sized down to my regular 7.5 and am very happy with them. The strap is especially easy to connect and disconnect - a really nice surprise!

These are it! I own all 3 pairs of Protege heels in black (these were the last pair I bought) and these ones are my favorite if you are a beginner in high heels 👠! Very stable and comfortable.

These shoes are amazing! Incredibly comfortably; I love all the details- the easy clasp, the arch support, the front shoe design that helps keep your foot from slipping forward- AMAZING…… I’m waiting for them to come out in Gold and Silver and then my collection will be complete!!!

I bought these for my wife. I bought her true size and discovered they are half size too large. After going down a half a size she was in love with them. They look beautiful and she swears they’re the most comfortable heels she’s ever worn.

The shoes are so comfortable. The most comfortable pair of high heels you’ll ever find. I am sadly having to return mine because my feet look too fat in them.

I Wish It came in a size 5! I’ll try to buy inserts or something because O M G idk how ma’am , HOW you made these literally so comfortable?!?! Even if I have to stuff tissue on the back, first pair I’ve ever worn and it’s literally completely comfortable. If I can make it work I will save up and invest in the black one too <3

My initial impression was that yes, they did feel better than most high heels, but they caused an unattractive wrinkling of the skin on top of my foot just behind the toe strap. I think this would be reduced if they were a bit wider, and I personally prefer a wider band across the toes as well. I was going to send them back, because for that price I wanted them to be perfect, but when I tried them on for my boyfriend, he absolutely loved them, and the way they made my legs look, so I decided to ...

It took a few days to wear them in and go without pain. I can’t use the spiked straps as they give me blisters, but with the plain straps , I can now wear them for hours and even dance all night long. Great shoes. I plan to buy them in black. Wish there was a red and pink option.

For the height, these shoes are very comfortable! I wore them for an all day meeting where I had to walk across campus. Overall, I would order again. I am looking forward to additional styles.

WOW! I don’t usually take the time to write reviews but these shoes deserve the time! They are amazingly comfortable!! I can already tell these are shoes I can wear for HOURS. They are beautiful and I love the ability to swap out the straps depending on your outfit! I purchased the nude and the black and I love them both!

Beautiful, sexy, and comfortable! I cannot wait to wear these on NYE! I was afraid that they would run small, but they don't at all. I usually wear a 10 or an 11, depending on the brand (if the brand runs small, I have to wear an 11), and the 10 in this case totally works. I also really appreciate the covered post to keep your foot in place and prevent that forward slide.

I had high hopes when I ordered these. And they delivered!!! Not only are they gorgeous, and the interchangeable straps are amazing, but they’re actually comfortable! I’m talking real life comfort. I preordered the nude because I need all the colors. I’m also going to need y’all to make about a billion more designs, because I will never wear another heel brand. You have ruined me. So thanks for that ;)

The heels are perfect. As soon as put them on I didn't feel pain like I normally do when I where heels. Triggering pain normally comes from the balls of my feet and I have to take them off immediately. With these I didn't feel that. However, I will say I will probably need to walk around in them for a while so that way my feet can use to the height and stability. Other than that I should be okay. Thank You.

The shoes were beautiful. Sadly, they were just too tall for me. I will watch to see if they come out with some not quite so high and try again. Returned and refunded with no problems.

I bought three pair.. I wear them all day, everyday. I just love them. They are definitely game changers! My feet do not hurt at all.

These stilettos are beautiful and well-made! I tried so hard to stand in them when I first got them at home for over an hour and I still could not do it. Maybe I'm just too old for that heel height. I am 58 years old and very active. So I have to return them.

Well done!! These heels do what they say with their marketing and keep your feet from hurting during and after wearing them. I’ll be ordering the thicker heels next just to have both options!

I’ve not really worn heels since before Covid and my feet got used to comfies. I have several dressy events this year and ordered the Protege slingbacks. The shoes fit my wide feet comfortably. So far I’ve worn them to 2 events.

Love these heels. So sexy and comfortable, as well! The extra straps for changing up the look make this heel the most versatile of my entire shoe collection. Will wear them with jeans, leggings, casual dresses and evening attire. Love, love, LOVE!

One of the best purchases I've ever made!! Honestly outstanding! I've been out dancing with absolutely NO discomfort which is unreal!! Not only are they super sexy and go with anything along with the multiple straps to choose from.. worth every penny!! Must have Ladies!!!

LOVE THE SHOES!!! I tried out a lot of shoes before getting these and I have never had such well-thought-out shoes before. I can't wait to wear them to a wedding I'll be attending!

I love the shoes very sexy and comfortable.... however my entire toe will not fit on the base of the shoe. The shoe is too narrow at the base. I will buy the shoes again if a closed pump is created or a wider base is created on sandal. Wonderful concept especially with the different straps.

These heels are not only the most comfortable but also the highest that I have. I can go out and not worry about how long it's going to be before my feet start hurting because they don't.

Absolutely love these! I am 43 years old, rarely wear heels these days, and much heavier than I was when I was younger and wore heels all the time. When I saw these I just had to try them (though I was skeptical). I decided to wear them all day to clean my house and do chores… no pain! I absolutely love these! Now I need them in other colors. These heels feel feel stable when walking, do not cause any pain, and look amazing!

I haven’t worn these out yet, but just trying them on was a dream. The buckle system was a little confusing (I didn’t realize they came with instructions) but once I figured out how to install the bow, I was enamored. These shoes are amazing and totally worth the splurge. I hope new ankle straps (and smaller options!) are available in the future.

These are truly game changers! Never before found a pair of stilettos that I could comfortably walk in without wobbling but the heel design and ankle support are fabulous. Look forward to wearing these every chance I get!

Omg! Wore my new pair for the first time last night and I swear Protege stands by it’s promise. I went up and down the stairs, stood for a long time, walked a lot and my feet did not hurt! I have narrow feet and it’s a perfect fit! Love, love and would absolutely order the black pair soon! Thank you! 💖

Brittany H.

I have to say I am impressed. I bought these in nude and black, hopeful but comforted by the return policy as I’m never able to wear any heels that are beautiful due to the pain and instability. Instantly I knew these were different and can walk comfortably. Definitely a huge difference in the construction between these and other brands. Great quality and I love the different band options. And hallelujah you don’t have to buckle the straps every time you take the shoes on and off!!! Brilliant! C...

Shoes are pretty comfortable wore them dancing a little stiff but hopefully that will go away after more wear will highly recommend would love some discount code so I can purchase in other colors

Wow! These are sooo comfortable! The hidden toe bar is the best! I normally would slide right thru this style shoe but the toe bar keeps my foot in place and does not dig into my feet. True to size.

I really like these shoes! They are super cute…love the satin! And the non-buckle, how brilliant! I’m looking forward to dancing the night away at my daughter’s wedding!

I was skeptical, but I have to say that I am impressed at the increased comfort of these shoes compared to a relatively similar looking pair of stiletto sandals that I have. Thanks!

Lorraine C.

I was skeptical, but these shoes are definitely comfy for being a 4" stiletto! the arch support helps a lot to redistribute the weight off of the ball of the foot. My front foot still gets a little sore, if I'm standing still for a long time, but walking/dancing they don't bother me at all. PLEASE make other styles! Would love a good pointy toe heel in other colors!

I was a little worried the first time I wore these shoes since I didn't have time to "break them in" but I was able to walk and dance without needing to change into other shoes. I love them!

Best heels ever! The only pair I want to wear anymore. I can go all day/night in them and not be uncomfortable. Please bring the white back! I own the black and nude. I’ll buy these in every color they’re released in!

I have to state this is coming from someone who NEVER wears heels. Especially NOT stilettos. These are the most comfortable heels I have ever worn. I wore them for an evening long gala which started with a 1 hour cocktail on lawn. Then proceeded to spend the rest of the evening in a carpeted ballroom. (4 hours of standing and dancing). I have no pain or burning at all. I did not rush home to take off the heels. I am beyond impressed. I certainly will buy more! Please make these shoes in a bunch...

I would have never believed that I would be comfortable in a heel of this height again, after ACL surgery. Pleasantly pleased. This shoe is not tennis shoe comfortable, but it is yummy nice. All the common reasons that women decide not to wear heels have been addressed and rectified in this shoe. I wish it came in a true brown nude and I'd wear this every day. Its a sexy shoe that is sexy to the wearers soul / sole as well.

The shoes fit wonderfully 👏🏾. Super comfortable and true to size.
