These were my go to in the Fall and Winter, and for a couple years, so there are a few marks, and worn down heel. They are, however, a comfortable foot bed, just like Birkenstock sandals. They are light tan, show dirt, unfortunately, but oh, so cozy the shearling-lined. The third picture is a failed attempt to show the Birkenstock label! Soles are crepe. Very much the style of Ugg boots. I'm just not keen on that label. Prefer Birkenstock to take care of my feet. Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns. These are absolutely worth it for knock around with plenty of wear left in them.
