User Reviews
I like it but it was too large
Shoes looked great but made squeaking noises when I walked
These are very comfortable Uniform Dress Shoes, that are compliment to the Class A’s.
Unfortunately as others have stated these shoes are polymer and not leather. Thorogood’s website lists this model as being leather so I’m not sure where the disconnect is. The tags say “Made using the finest man-made materials available” and they appear to be PVC with a felt liner.
2nd time love the boots
Boots arrived on time and what I needed.
I thought I was ordering leather shoes. These are synthetic, and while comfortable, are not what I ordered. Unfortunately I discovered this after wearing them outside, so they are not returnable.
Cheaply made
