REVIEW: T.U.K Velvet Creepers in Emerald Green

I'm big on "out of the norm" kind of shoes and I've always been in LOVE with creepers. This Christmas I was blessed enough to get a pair as a gift from my mother. I've been swooning over these for months and now that I finally have them I thought I'd do a review. 

Overall, I absolutely love the shoes. I was a bit worried they would be heavy and they're definitely not a light shoe but the weight of them doesn't cause me any issues. The shoes together are roughly 5lb, so individually they're roughly 2.5lb. This can change depending on what size shoe you are. I personally am able to walk in them for long periods of time with no problem. When it comes to quality, these feel like a dream! The velvet is extremely soft, I honestly cannot get over it. I'm always worried shoes won't look as they do on the website if I'm purchasing shoes that aren't black. I saw these online and the color is spot on. The emerald green is so vibrant and in natural lighting it gives it tons of beautiful shades of emerald green. As shown in the photos. When it comes to sizing, I'm always a size US 11 in men and in these I had to size down to a US 10. So I recommend you size down 1 whole size if purchasing online. They do not offer these shoes in half sizes unfortunately but if you have a shop that sells creepers near you  I recommend going and trying on pairs in different sizes and see what best fits you. 

The shoes are not difficult to walk in, at least I don't think so. If you're not used to walking in platform shoes then these will definitely take some getting used to but it'll be easy to adjust to the height difference with the platform. Overall these shoes nothing but amazing and I'm so grateful to be able to have these.
