These are pumps made of a velour-like material. The color is a subdued purple. They were originally purchased at a store as "reason for discount" due to sun fading. Although they have been used a few times, there are many scratches on the heels. (It seems like they might not be noticeable if you color them in with a marker.) There is overall fading and some areas that have turned white, but the heels are not worn down and I believe they can still be worn beautifully. I no longer have opportunities to wear pumps, but I feel it would be a waste to throw them away, so I would be happy if someone could use them. I have listed them as "scratched and dirty," so please refrain from purchasing if you are concerned about this. Size...23cm
