The Women's Austin in Black Oil Color: Taupe Suede Tapestry, Size: 9, Width: W (Wide)came exactly as described.  The does run a little big, but that just leaves room for thick socks.  The back is a cross between a mule and a clog, there is a little shoe to the back, but it doesn't come up very high.  I like it very much.  The shoe looks good and feels good as well.  I have been wearing tennis shoes and ballet flats for a very long time and the first few days the top of my foot was sore from the rigidity of the shoe.  I'm a delicate flower.  But after a few days everything is fine. I highly recommend this shoe.
