text: The suede is a nice neutral taupe color, and the simple design makes these shoes great for a casual work outfit or a day out if you're going to be on your feet. Unfortunately, the back of the shoe rubs against the back of my ankles so much that I get calluses after less than an hour, making them essentially unwearable. The shoe doesn't look right with socks on underneath, so I'm stuck with the opposite of 'comfort' shoes.
