Beautiful, original sandals with leather straps. I have never worn them outdoors, which you can tell from the pictures of the soles. They do, however, have one small flaw, which is that on some straps, the leather has come loose, revealing the white straps. They can be worn that way, though, and it makes for an attractive combination of black and cream colored straps(none of the straps are broken or ripped), so they are still in very good condition!!!!
