I wore these shoes to work. After a couple of hours I felt they were rubbing so I removed the shoe and my foot was (not exaggerating here at all) the same color as the black shoe. Like as dark as the shoe, pitch black! How horrible. Thank goodness I had another pair of shoes with me to change into after I had to wash my feet in the bathroom at work! I read someone else had this experience before I purchased but seemed like such a good deal I had to try. Like they say "if its too good to be true"! Throwing them in the garbage where they belong!
