i like them, will try to post some pics on the weekend when i can get normal light in the room (when i come home from work it's already dark and the artificial light doesn't do them justice).
they're in fact very dark brown, i noticed this when putting them on my black filco case.
the profile si so high, i had to get a wrist rest to have a comfortable position while gaming, but i love the material and quality. still not 100% sure whether i will keep them as a daily driver, dunno if SA is the way, although i have 2 more SA sets on the way (calm depths and penumbra).
all in all, the quality is amazing.
