CAVEAT: not comfy! It's taken quite some time to break these in. Maybe I need to wear it many more times for it to be comfortable but I think that's usually the case for high quality leather anyway. The top part of the shoe essentially doesn't move. The overall shoe heaviness is about a medium. Also​,​ like all Chanel shoes​,​ I had to size up. I'm normally a 35.5 but these are 36.5. But of course they're very nice and pretty so no qualms about buying these!!!!
