I purchased these last year and wore them outdoors about twice. Upon close inspection, the soles and the left toe area are a bit black (see photos 4 and 5), but I don't think it's very noticeable when worn. I love the different color version, and they're easy to walk in because they're flat without heels♪ Thank you for looking!♡ ★ We cannot accept claims after a successful bid, so please understand this before purchasing. ★ We inspect carefully, but please forgive any oversight of stains, etc. ★ The design and condition of the items involve subjective expressions and individual differences in perception. ★ Please purchase only if you understand that these are used items.
