Do these run true to size?

These run small. Size up one full size. KOI does not carry half sizes. If between sizes, go up.

Are these comfortable, and do they suit wider feet?

The chunky platform sole distributes weight evenly and adds stability, making these more comfortable for extended wear than the height suggests. Customers report wearing them comfortably for full days and events once broken in. The fit runs narrow. if you have wide feet, size up one full size for the best fit.

What should I know before wearing the Darkbloom Black Platform Heels for the first time?

The size on the box will be in UK sizing. KOI is a UK brand and the US size you selected on Shoefreaks.ca has been converted to the correct UK equivalent. Wear them at home for 30 to 60 minutes before your first outing to let the upper soften and settle around your foot. Break-in for this style is minimal. The upper material will ease with wear and feel noticeably more comfortable after the first few uses.

Who is this style designed for?

This heel is made for alternative fashion dressers, dark romantics and bold occasion wearers who want significant height with distinctive detailing for goth events, nights out, photoshoots and special occasions.

Is this style vegan, how do I care for it, and how long will it last?

Yes, this style is fully vegan. The upper and all materials are synthetic with no animal-derived leather, suede or glues. To care for them, wipe down with a damp cloth and mild soap after each wear. Store in a cool dry place away from direct sunlight to help the material hold its shape and finish. With regular care they hold up well through consistent use.
