I have these flats in natural and electric blue (more like purple) and find them quite satisfactory.  They are good basic shoes for work, shopping, etc., and look good with a wide variety of outfits.  I do find dv's a little wide in the heel, so will probably be adding grippers after a few more wearings. I am able to wear my usual 9.5 with no issues other than the heels, and that happens all the time.
