I've never liked the look but I'm thinking about giving them a try. What do you think? I don't know if I'm too traditional but I prefer the standard pump with a dress but these are kind of edgy.   |

I didn't like them at first, but they are growing on me. I'm thinking about buying a pair myself.

I like them - ideally, the sides from the photo on the right with the front of the one on the left!  |

I'm starting to really like the look. That's a sure-fire indication that they're going out of style.  |

If you can wear them, go for it! With my feet, each of the straps would give me a blister.

I like the ones in the pic you posted. What I don't care for are the ones that go all the way up to the knees.

I have two pair and get a TON of compliments on them every time I wear them.

I love them! Standard pumps can get boring.

I'm too old to wear them. I say go for the heels!

Ok no one has said no, so I'm going to buy them. I've actually never owned back heels before, so this will be a first.

They look good. I'd have a nosebleed if I wore them though!

I'll be the line dissenter, I think they look like medieval torture devices. :-)

My arthritic feet and ankles are hurting just looking at them, but for people that don't have my issues I say go for it.

I got the pair on the right and will wear it with skinny jeans, don't think I like the look of it with a dress yet. The weather never inhibits my shoe choice. lol After all I'm only outside briefly to get a cab.

I have a pair similar to those and I love them. FTR I am in my late forties!

I'm not wild about the really heavy looking gladiator styles. But I think both the ones you pictured are cute!

I have this pair from Naturalizer. They were my MOB shoes and surprisingly more comfortable than you'd think. They have the strappy look of the gladiators but a little lighter with the straps. They do look great with my dress. |

I think they'd look great with skinny jeans. My DD had a pair, but gave them away because her pinky toe kept getting caught between the straps.

I think the ones in the picture are very cute, but alas! They would be ankle breakers for me, or at least the cause of extreme pain and suffering.

I really like gladiator heels and would wear either of those.I'm not big on the tall ones either. I agree that they are more of a warm weather thing though (at least for me). I have one pair, gold, with a wedge heel that are super comfortable and that I get a lot of compliments on.

I think they are cute and sexy. I would end up flat on my face. Oh, to be young again.

I really dislike some and like others. I think some that have a lot of coverage just look crazy bad but the ones you posted I like. I really like the 1st pair. I could never pull off wearing them.
