I purchased four colors of this shoe.  Tan, Black, Navy and Red.  I decided to send back the Red color as I didn't feel it would go with too many of my outfits.  Here in FL, I wear the Tan color the most.. Just so you know, Navy and Black are different colors when held side by side, but also quite similar.  If you can only afford to  buy one color, I would suggest purchasing the black, and most likely the color difference won't be a problem.  This is a very versatile shoe!  I wear with both pants and skirts. One thing I like about the shoe, besides the immediate comfort (no break in period) is the fact that it covers my toes and heels.  Sometimes one just doesn't get pedicures as often as one should!  LOL! I was hoping to see the shoe come out in a White color for a summer, but it does not yet appear that is happening.  I think this style may have run its course and is not being made anymore?  Some of the prices have been marked down already.
