meeny Posted September 22, 2014 Posted September 22, 2014 Recently learned of these and have really fallen for them. Maybe not $700 worth of falling, but still think they are lovely. The spare heel makes it look like a sketch of a heel, and I also like the juxtaposition of the steel and the leather. Does anyone own a pair? Are they a joy or pleasure-is-pain to wear?http://us.casadei.com/on/demandware.store/Sites-Casadei-US-Site/default/Product-Show?pid=6532N164%2eDN6T372O60&start=9&cgid=shoes-pumps
Amanda Posted September 23, 2014 Posted September 23, 2014 I have four pairs of blades; Softy metal, Peplum and two pairs in black one of which is patent. 'pleasure-is-pain to wear' as you mentioned. If you're in the market for a pair then keep an eye out for sales at their online boutique, they have a habit of slashing prices now and then. :-)
Guest Posted November 17, 2014 Posted November 17, 2014 Sorry for the late reply I found a copy during the summer from Treds although not so sharp and elegent, I felt quite acceptable. . Slightly tight across the lower foot but stretching and becoming comfortable. Heel balance is good, doesn't feel heavy. They were sale stock at that time but may still be available. (orig price was £30). Al
Majo Posted December 11, 2014 Posted December 11, 2014 I have a pair too. I posted pictures on the "Who has bought some new shoes" thread. They are black suede. Beautiful shoes; they run tight so half a size up would be a good choice. I bought them in Farfetch -they were shipped from Biondini- so I paid full price. But they are worth it. Craftsmanship is excellent. Much better than the Louboutins' I own and similar to Brian Atwoods'. Here, in Argentina, Prüne made a similar shoe but with a wider metal heel looking it from the back and more or less as thin as the blade from the side.
Prue Posted December 12, 2014 Posted December 12, 2014 I have two pairs of pumps one pink satin and one red suede with golden trim. Additionally I have a pair black suede overknee boots with front zip and golden lacing and a similar pair of ankle boots. I guess i'm kind of casadei blade obsessed. The boots tend to run a little bit small so i would suggest maybe a half number up. The pumps are better especially the red suede pumps are pretty much true to size.
dww Posted August 4, 2015 Posted August 4, 2015 Very nice heels but not for me. life is not a rehearsal
dww Posted August 5, 2015 Posted August 5, 2015 Hi Amanda, Sorry but tall heels is just not me, I prefer something a lot lower and not so girly. styles I can wear everday, that's the way I am. life is not a rehearsal
robbiehhw Posted August 5, 2015 Posted August 5, 2015 Totally love those. At $348 discounted on the pink or the blue, I am really tempted.

Hi Amanda, Sorry but tall heels is just not me, I prefer something a lot lower and not so girly. styles I can wear everday, that's the way I am. Ah well then that explains it :-)
Amanda Posted August 12, 2015 Posted August 12, 2015 I like them, but wish I could afford them!! Being able to afford something depends entirely on the importance you attach to it.
Heelster Posted August 12, 2015 Posted August 12, 2015 Being able to afford something depends entirely on the importance you attach to it. Quite correct Amanda. - - - Homeless and hungry in high dollar heels - - - - Nope.
Amanda Posted August 27, 2015 Posted August 27, 2015 Amanda, you need to post pics of them on Thank you for the invite but I don't actually relish the idea of posting pictures of myself here.
jamie1608 Posted March 10, 2021 Posted March 10, 2021 https://www.casadei.com/en/shoes/highlights/blade/ looks like they have reinstated that style 1
NrthEastHeel Posted March 30, 2022 Posted March 30, 2022 I loooove the Blade by Casadei. If i had to choose between Louboutin So Kates , Jimmy Choo Anouk, or these, i think i would have these (only by the tiniest of margins). Such a stunning shoe. If i had the means, id have all 3 styles 1

They run small, bought US 11's and they are very tight. Anyway got brand new direct from Casadei for 100 dollars due to damage I couldn't find. Says a lot about their quality control. 1

I can never find them in an 11.

So what you're saying is, that should I ever buy any Casadei shoes, which I may end up doing someday, I should buy a 10? They are not marked in Euro sizes? I learned a long time ago that 9 ≠ 39, unlike what many charts will tell you.

Well, i recommend you try them on in store. 8 hours ago, StilettoLuv said: Do you typically wear high heels everyday? And your on your feet too? I do, even at work while at my desk. I keep several pair there.
