So for me the color was once something of not so, as in the picture. Took me but not overly bothered as the color in the picture yes / beige is rather gray and my pair is a real brown / beige. The shoe I like super, and also the price of 23Euro was of course great. I find brand shoes worth anyway rather lowered because they usually are not any better on the quality than no-name products. On a beautiful shoe, but unfortunately is also faster dirty but by the bright material you can live with. Incidentally, I have yet to get a pair of greyish laces to, but in no way to match your shoes, so no idea what that was;) Find the shoes super comfortable, also had no pain anywhere. Wearing size 40 and find the shoes are a little bulky for my big feet. For others with smaller feet Keds see vieel better but as you have probably by :) All in all a nice casual shoe also super hot pants.
