I ordered this same shoe in black and LOVED it.  When I tried on the brown they were completely different.
Maybe they were left overs?  They didn't come in their original box, but I didn't think much of it at first.
The two shoes didn't look like they belong in the same pair.  The distressing made it VERY noticable.
One toe was very dark and defined and the other was not, making it look like I ruined my shoes, not that they looked distressed on purpose.
I am also shocked that they were terribly uncomfortable.  No cushion at all inside, nothing like the black pair.
The quality of the brown was very disappointing.  Keeping the black, would have kept the brown if they were the same.
