I have had several brands of flats and these by far are my favorite. The pair I have are dark gray which I don't see available anymore, but they were a splurge for me at $49.00 at a boutique on the coast, and worth every penny! I recieve many compliments when I wear them & I can shop till I drop in them! The actual soul is not really cushy, but the material it's made out of doesn't rub blisters & fits perfectly! I love the peep toe too, giving that extra bit of wiggle room! I would buy them 100 times over!
