these shoes are:
a great light taupe color (difficult to find, i think)
a very nice shape, with plenty of room in the toe box (yay! this is a bit difficult to find these days)
constructed of good materials (nice suede & leather; i do suggest a silicone spray for protection)
they look good for winter (with tights or socks) & summer (no socks)
amazingly comfy- they have tons of arch support!
slightly unstable (for me) b/c of the narrow, tapering heel, which is why i gave 4 stars instead of 5.

i actually love these shoes, the heel is the only part i wish was different. *this may only be my problem, b/c when i walk, my toe points outward to the side & up, making the outer edge of my heel hit the ground first, hence the instability b/c there just inst enough surface-space for me*.

I have a pair of tsubo shoes which are pretty much the same shoe but with slightly more platform, less support & that heel narrows much more dramatically at the sole. they can be dangerous for me with ankle-turning. & despite the idea that tsubo shoes are supposed to be a higher-quality shoe (i do not think they are, to be honest; they just look cool), the otbt shoes i own (these & 2 pair of roswells) are more stable & MUCH more comfortable due to so much more support.
  (the otbt roswells are also wonderfully comfy & similar in the support & roominess of the footbed & toe-box, tho not quite as comfy for all-day wear as this pair).

i have insanely high arches & this style of otbt shoes are the only shoes i have ever had that have enough arch support. all my other shoes require an arch support insert. these shoes also really give my feet that 'cradled' feeling. i imagine i could walk around the city all day long in these babies, and i imagine lengthier standing would not be nearly as bad in these little gems as other shoes.

lastly, these shoes are quite fashionable. i really love them. i just wish the surface space of the heel was greater... tho that would interrupt the intended style & look of these shoes.

so, i will definitely be purchasing more OTBTs, based on quality, comfort and style.
