Original pattern was black & white shoes. However my dad wants THIS pattern and on a BLACK towel. Well... black on black won't show. So, I had to come up with plan B. We decided on brown as a substitute for the black. In the 1/2 shoe at the back, I kept the original white and just substituted the black for the brown. In the full shoe in the front, I also switched the white to a cream/pale brown colour. Please let me know if you have a preferrence - I welcome any comments: both positive or negative! :) Thanks, Debbie

I think these look very nice . Black couldn't look any better than this *

I like the cream and brown. It looks more manly

Definitely not the white! The cream is more stylish (sorry, I have a Europeen french taste) Pat

I must admit I am agreeing with you. I prefer the cream. But, Dad says white, andsince it's a gift for him.... :) Thanks for your input! *4U

Well you have a lot of great answers - but I will add mine to the rest. I like the white shoe. But, I do believe that both will look great on the black towel. Good luck. Sue

I perfer the cream also. But they both look great. Lisa

forgot ,the cream

Got it at Embroidery Library. Thanks for your vote!

They both look good. I prefer the cream myself. But I would change the white seam with either a matching cream or even the brown. To my eye the white looks odd with the cream/brown shoes.

The white gets my vote, i think it looks elegant and stands out better.

You did a great job and the colors are perfect***

Thanks. Ultimately that is what my dad has chosen also. And it is for him, so he rules on the final count! :)

The brown and white is so much better than the black and white. Brown helps it to pop out. Black would only blend in. * like the design. *4u

Thank you!

well it's difficult, because they are both very good. But I prefer the creme-brown shoe. because I think it looks softer than the white one.I think the difference between the colour white and the black background is too much. Just like dgramma I prefer the cream-brown.

Ok I'll be the first to vote for the cream/brown shoe.Both look great, but I actually like the cream and brown shoe better,more subtle contrast to me.
