I had purchased the "purple" ones. They were not purple they were indigo. The picture was very deceiving... maybe on purpose because it looks like they photo-shopped it.
Also
Every Spring Step shoe I have bought is a bit too small (these were way too small). I don't think they know what a size 42 (10.5-11) is. I'm a true 10.5, but almost no one makes this size anymore so I always go up to an 11. So, buying an 11 and having it be too small just chaps my hide!
I did by one pair directly from Spring Steps site. The "Amara Wedge Sandal". I took the risk because it was a great price. They came today as well, but they fit much better. Still a little small but should be easy enough to break them in.
This makes me think that the Spring Step shoes that are sold by other storefronts are not necessarily true to size... Are these storefronts selling the defects? I don't know, but if you are any size above a 10 - I suggest giving up on this brand. It's a real pity too.. the Le Artiste line is beautiful. Sigh... another company that excludes us tall women... boooooooo
