I have bought this shoe in different colors except for black and only because I could not find it.  These are really nice, well made sandals for the summer.  They are well constructed and are very comfortable.  These run true to size and the straps do not dig into your foot.  If you need height and want a good comfortable shoe, this is the shoe for you.  I am only 5'4" so, I always want/need a decent size heel so I don't have to constantly take up my pants.  The fact that there is a platform does not place your body at an odd angle with the 4" heel it is much more even and easier on your feet and back.
