Pads are way too small. I?ve attached photos of the unboxing. Unfortunately, I have problem feet and must have a bit of arch support, particularly if I want to wear them on a long walk. I love wedges because they are the comfiest of the heel family. I exchanged them for a size 9 and the length is good but they are still tight. Fast shipping made these worth every penny. Attractive appearance with the brushed nickel finish. The jeweled detail is outstanding. My headphone, my shotgun mic, all my lavs, are all Sennheiser. Those of you who are Call of Duty ninjas, youll definitely hear the boots on the ground of your foes.
