These shoes/sandals are fantastic!  I purchased them in the spring of 2010 while I was in the early weeks of pregnancy...I had NO IDEA how thankful I'd be in the coming months that I'd bought them.  So many sandals have little or no support in them, and if they do, they're hideous.  These are the perfect combination of style and comfort.  The color is neutral enough to wear with basically and color clothing, too.  After being worn every day the temperature was at least 50 degrees, these are showing a bit of wear, and due to the texture of the leather I would hesitate to throw them in the washing machine or take a soapy rag to them...but they would be well worth the trip to a shoe repairman for a sprucing up.  I'll wear these until they fall apart, and then probably purchase another pair (should they still be available).
