Selling all my "office/work" shoes now that I'm remote. These are soft to touch (synthetic suede-ish) and are black/very dark grey. The back has a faux brade, with a "curtain" draping over the foot all around. Soles and zippers are in great shape and still functional. They go with jeans (either over tight or under boot cut), yoga pants, skirts, dresses, etc. There is some wear and tear due to use. Very comfortable to wear and walk in all day.
