Have purchased this shoe in the back and the cream colors and absolutely loved them!  Was not as happy with this snake skin look of the shoe.  It fit much tighter in the same size, and was not nearly as comfortable or giving.  I didn't wear them for a day or two because I couldn't decide if I would keep them. Overall, they are just an ok shoe for the price and if I had it to do over again, I would send them back.  I don't think they are enough "comfort" for the money!
