There are so many great things about these shoes, but for my feet, they just don't fit quite right.  After wearing them for the day there are a couple red spots where they have been rubbing across the top of my foot.  These aren't blisters but areas where the shoe has been putting pressure.  Still They are comfortable for the balls of my feet and my heel and I can feel how they make my legs work a little more when I walk.  The color is also a nice dark chocolate that is richly saturated in the leather.  There are so many things I do really like about the shoes, I just wish that the part that goes across the top of the foot was a little roomier.
