I only wore these shoes outside one time---they were a bit tight for my wide feet, and now I see that Nisolo recommends sizing a half size up, so these would be better for someone who is 9.5-10. They are so cute and I really wanted to make them work. Soles are in almost perfect condition, -leather shows light wear as shown in photos. note that the actual color is not the "brandy" shown in the first few photos. It's more of a medium brown (no red undertones) shown in the last 4 photos. I don't think Nisolo offers this color anymore.
