I love the wool runners
These shoes are pale pink just like the picture. They are not taupe. Even though I have few outfits that they will match, I could not resist the sale price. The "runners" style is very comfortable as is the wool. (The "tree" fabric, which I also have, is not as comfortable.) I have about a dozen now. I wear them everywhere unless I'm wearing sandals.
The length is good and I can lace them up to fit my narrow foot.
