I bought these for my son on Amazon. I purchased sizes 22.5, 23.5, and 24.5. Since the 23.5 fit perfectly, these shoes have only been tried on and are unused outside. I bought them this spring. There is a slight stain on the size label. The color is a dark navy, closer to black than in the images. These are sneakers designed to be put on while standing, and they offer excellent breathability and cushioning. - Brand: STRDEOUT - Style: Sneakers - Features: Designed to be put on while standing - Breathability: Excellent breathability - Cushioning: With cushion pads Thank you for looking.
