[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought these as a gift for my wife and she loved them. Nostalgia for her as a kid. She did find them to fit on the smaller side of her size so she went up 1/2 size.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love the shoe, nice fit for a narrow foot. I have received many compliments. Dark brown with white laces. Inside the box they give you brown laces. I thought that was a bonus
