Plum Banana Republic pumps - new with defects

Made in Italy and of such a lustrous plum color it is hard to capture in photos. I’ve never had such a beautifully colored shoe - it’s rich without being tacky or overwhelming, and the leather is elegantly gathered. If you’re picky like me, I’ll tell you the color is most like the purple on the left shoe in the second-to-last photo. Unworn, but two superficial nicks on one sole as shown in the last photo. These have been sitting in a box in my closet for a few years, and suede can get a little compressed, but just brush the nap in the other direction and it will look fresh again!
