I buy these shoes almost always in our store. Unfortunately, there is no longer there, the color creme. So on Amazon .. Since I now already since 5 years to buy these shoes every time again (they make a really small feet and are super comfortable), I was absolutely certain. Anticipation is rising, shoes are there rock hard .. I have "fold up" the heel must, while it sounded like I would break something tear .. Also the front part which is very stubborn. With a heavy heart I will send both, black and cream, return. Usually the fabric is super soft.
