I got these for about a third of the price on Amazon Warehouse Deals because there is a BARELY visible scuff on the right toe. These are very stylish, quite comfortable for a heel because the wedge angle isn't as steep as some, so they are easy to walk in. The pictures are pretty light on here, they are a very dark jet black suede. Overall, I love them! They fit pretty true to size and aren't narrow at all - my only complaint is the laces come untied pretty easily/often because of what they are made of/coated with. Tucking them in or double-knotting will solve that.
