Have always liked Betsey Johnson Items & have other boots by her. I thought these looked really cute and liked the color. When I got them, I was disappointed in the quality of the leather, one shoe had a black ink mark on it and several small gouges in the leather - I hope they are supposed to be this way as they are described as distressed. Other wise they are defective & I would hate to think a company would sell defective merchandise. I was able to get the black mark off. Also they look a bit more pink in the picture on line than they actually are - more of a brown shade than pinkish. I was going to return them but can no longer find this color in my size. I will keep them as they are cute, and I paid 1/2 price for them. I will probably not buy any more boots/shoes from this vender.
