I love Amazon because it enables us to purchase a shoe like this at a fraction of the Big Store prices.  I had this in white & wore them all last summer & they held up great.  At the end of October these sandals were offered here at a DEEP discount so I got brown & black ($18.00 for the black ones!!.) It is March 21st in Buffalo (going to hit 80 degrees!) & am wearing the brown crocodile patent ones today for the first time since I got them.
They are absolutely adorable, butter soft, cushiony...I can't say enough nice things about them.  Funny story about the black ones: (I stored them til the weather was nice enough) When I pulled the shoes out from under the tissue, one shoe was the Propet Trinidad I was expecting, the other one was a "Fresta" dyeable shoe with a kitten heel.  Couldn't even pretend they were a pair. :) But when I contacted Amazon, they allowed me to return them for a refund even though it was after 30 days. I did just now order the black croco & the red croco.  The black croco ones were $20 more than the plain black I had ordered previously, but those weren't available in my size. I am still thrilled to be getting these awesome shoes at an excellent price.
