They are very pretty. but after couple of wearing, they have scratch marks here and there.These are very well made leather shoes that hold up to a lot. They look dressy but have an easy on/off velcro and a non-slip rubber sole with a cute modern design in bright turquoise. The included "baubles" (add ons) are rubber bows that attach to a velcro piece on the front for extra cuteness. We liked them so much that we got them in several sizes for future years. The only downs I see are the initial smell (very strong but not bad and goes away leaving the box open for several days) and the fact that the company do not send the extra pair of "baubles" like they say they would.
