"I LOVE these shoes. I purchased the taupe color last year and thought I would wear them out! They just keep going and look great! I ordered another pair in black yesterday. In September I purchased some ankle boots by Earth and those already look terrible, the fake covering on "stacked" heel, started to peel off, those were $139, those went back. Knowing that these little suede booties by Crown Vintage for $69 outlasted those made me want another pair."
