Normally I would give these a 5 star due to comfort, but only 4 stars this time. I bought the stone, and seems after just a few times of wearing them they looked like an old pair of shoes. I ended up buying some brown polish & buffing them up, then they looked new again. I think rather than the quality of the shoe, the stone color just seems to look a little distressed. I am on my feet a lot at work, first time wearing these shoes, your feet still feel great at the end of the day. I wear a 9 and the combined sizing fits perfect. You can tell these are a quality shoe. After you buy Dansko shoes, you will think that is the only shoe you can purchase again.
