I have these shoes in the brown and they are great.  They work well with dress pants, skirts as well as jeans.  The shoe is comfortable but runs a little big.  I usually wear a 10 but the 9.5 fits me perfectly.  The shoe is a dark brown with hints of black throughout.  There isn't too much padding in the footbed so walking around all day can get uncomfortable.  All in all a great shoe for inside the office and out.
