I bought these for my summer vacation and don't think I'll even need to pack another pair of shoes!  They are so comfortable I will be able to walk in them all day every day easy.  They are constructed really well too, so I expect they will hold up for a very long time.  The color is a true red.  They would be appropriate for any age group.  I think they'll look cute in everything from skirts to jeans!  I highly recommend these sandals.  They're fantastic!
