Are they worth the price? I think I recall a number of people liking them, right? I keep going through black pumps every few months because the tips wear out, and between buying new shoes and getting the tips replaced multiple times, it's still ridiculous how poorly made the shoes I used to buy (Nine West) are now.
I have three pairs of CH pumps. One pair (a non-Air pair) is very comfortable. One pair (Air Fiona) is uncomfortable after 5 minutes of walking, and brutal after 10 minutes of walking. The third pair (Air Chelsea) is the worst pair of heels I've ever owned -- brutal after 5 seconds of being on my feet. So I'm not a fan, although others do like them so maybe our feet are different or the pairs that they have are good.
At the very least, don't buy them at full price. They go on sale ALL THE TIME.
I really wanted a pair last year at the Nordie's Anniversary sale but they were sold out in my size. They are so comfy. Maybe wait a few weeks and see if they are in the sale again this year.

This. I'd also wait for holiday sales. I'm a fan of 6pm.com for CH shoes. I bought pairs for $90 and $130.
I never pay full price. I love my Air Lainey pumps. Very comfy. My Air Violet pumps are not as comfy, but the heels are really high so I think that's why.
oooo I found ones I want on amazon for $165. That's pretty good, right? For these shoes? I need shoes like yesterday because H ruined my only other pair of black pumps when trying to fix him (it was worth a shot because the cobbler was charging an arm and a leg and it wasn't any better.)
I personally don't, but I think they run narrow and I have wide feet, so the sides rub against my feet, anyway, completely defeating the purpose of having cushiony soles.

Bah, I purchased them. Hopefully I won't regret it but even if I hate them I can return them fo' free. Thanks for your help, guys! I have narrow feet, especially heels (weird, I know) so I'm hoping I'll do well with them.

I have a pair of non-air pumps that I love. I haven't tried the Nikeair ones though. I bought mine for $100 at Saks Off Fifth. FYI, Cole Hann's run big for me. I wear a 7.5 in CH and an 8-8.5 in everything else.

Those are the ones I have. DO NOT BUY! THEY ARE THE WORST SHOES I'VE EVER OWNED! MERELY THINKING ABOUT PUTTING THEM ON MY FEET MAKES ME WANT TO Seriously, my feet feel bruised for days after wearing them briefly.
I bought them at Amazon in November, and they were the same price then.

Oooopssss. I definitely bought them but Amazon has free returns so hopefully it'll all be alright. Also, I think I have pretty tough feet from being a dancer so hopefully all that paid off.
I have either loved or hated almost every CH pump I've ever tried. I love my Air Talia mid pumps, my Air Talia 40 wedges, and I have a new pair of purple Air Violet 60's that I think I like but haven't worn all day yet. I also have a pair of espadrille wedges that I like ok, but seem to need to break in a little.
I have hated a lot of others. Air Carma? Forget it. Air Julianna? Awful. I haven't tried the Chelsea pumps, partly based on what v says about them.
I tend to go for the shorter heel height of two if the style has more than one (many do). Where I usually have trouble is rubbing on the inside of my heel/ankle, and sometimes pinchy toes. I have narrow feet, so many styles work well for me, but I think wide feet would be a no go.

I have three pairs: Air Talia pumps, Air Talia wedges and the Air Chelsea pumps. Each pair has really hurt my feet the first few times I have worn them and then they will turn into the most comfortable shoes I own.

Yes, I am obsessed with my Air Talia mid pumps and ESPECIALLY my Air Talia 40 wedges (have them in black and nude patent).
I agree with Susie that about Air Julianna. They were terrible and I usually love CH and wear them out of the box without an issue. The Air Talia-esque wedges that I have in black are great. I can't remember what style they are exactly, but they are awesome.
