I could not wait for these to arrive, and when it did I was a some what unhappy with the look. On the picture it looked like dark brown. But, it is a lighter brown also the heel is a little to high for me to where everyday, which I thought would be happening for the fall/winter. On top of that I wear a 7 1/2 or 8 in boots and this is kind of tight. Thankfully I have a younger sister that has a smaller foot than I. She will be happy to have these.
