I've been a Milano fan from day one. It was love, the first purchase. Beautiful and affordable luxury. I get lots of compliments. However, with this particular color (brown), I am concerned that it will not be scratch resistant and the color will stain. I would appreciate if they send me some polish to use for coating and blending to get these beautiful shoes. However, I do not give less than 5 stars because I have always sworn by Milano shoes. I have included a photo of me in the black pair which I also purchased. So I found a hack for tan shoes - use Kiwi "Dark Tan" polish. Brown or dark brown will not work.
