Excellent product. Looks great and feels comfortable.
Perfect fit!
I'm rating these highly because they were exactly what I was looking for. They are not top quality shoes but are a good shoe for the price for my needs. After a year and eight months I've worn these out enough to order second pair.I work in the mid-east and travel every 4-6 weeks on a 25-29 hour trip. I have to go through six security checks one way, 5 of which I have to take off my shoes. I've had other slip on shoes that were either so tight that I had to take time to stop, bend over, and shoe horn them in with my fingers, or were to loose which made them uncomfortable for long periods of walking. These are simple to slip on and off quickly, yet fit well and are comfortable for long walks. I'm still keeping my old pair and keep them near the door for when I need to quickly put on a pair to run an errand or walk the dog. My wife thinks its rather silly to wear these when walking the dog, but they are just more convenient and comfortable than sandals or tennis shoes. Unless I'm wearing shorts, I just slip on my old pair of these, for long walks around the neighborhood or to run to the store.When working overseas my office is mostly business casual. But I have to take armored vehicles from my residential compound to the office and the dust and gravel were murder on the expensive dress shoes I original wore. Also, there are no carpets in the office and the floors and stairs are polished marble and often slick from having recently been mopped because the cleaning is done in the morning for some reason. After almost slipping down the stairs and just walking several times with my old dress shoes I wanted something that had good grip, but still were appropriate for the dress code. These are perfect. I save my good dress shoes for the rare time I have to suit up, but wear these at all other times at work or when traveling.As at least one other reviewer has mentioned that these done shine up well and that is true, but rubbing off the dust with a wet cloth and quickly running over them with a shoe polish sponge makes them presentable enough for my environment. I've not experienced any issues with scratching or the "finish" coming off. After a year and eight months of heavy use and abuse the outside of the shoe and the sole have held up well. But the inside, especially at the heel has worn out, which Is why I'm buying a new pair.A year and 8 months is not great in terms of durability, which is why I give these 4 instead of 5 stars, but these are simply the best shoes I've ever owned in terms of comfort and convenience for business casual work and travel. And, besides, I've really abuse these. I wear them all the time, in and out of the office. These, along with Haggar Men's Cool 18 Pro Classic Fit Flat Front Pants, are a perfect combo and have been game changes for me.
Live in them at work. Comfyest shoes ever!
My husband loves the shoes. He had a pair and they are worn out so he went online and ordered the exact same ones. They are very lightweight and comfortable to wear around all day. Great quality shoe!
This was a gift for a friend. He had looked in a local store and they didn't have his size. I looked on line and found the same shore in the correct size and he was very pleased!
Shoe is well made but is larger than expected
Very comfortable shoe. Sizing based on inches was true to fit. Shoes look great with suits, formal attire or with jeans.
