This is my second pair of Acorns. The first were brown and wore fantastically but had to be thrown away bc of the dog. This new pair "chinchilla" fit and feel the same but I liked the brown color better. There is a slight purple hue to the grey. I love these slippers! The rubber bottom provides protection. The cushion of the sole is amazing. These slippers are so soft and wonderful and are great for wearing all over. I will buy more.
