These boots have been in my closet since I bought them. I have never worn them outside. The tags are still attached. These are in brand new condition. They are suede- a brown /gray color. I see more brown But everyone sees color differently. These are an 8 1/2. Heels and the toes are in perfect condition. They side zip they are above the knee and you can tie them up top. Feel free to ask any questions what you see is exactly what you shall receive.
