User Reviews
Super comfortable and light. Most dress shoes have slick bottoms, are stiff and the cut leather edges cut into my ankles the way I rest my feet during the day. These have a padded cuff, they're flexible, super light weight and have plenty of grip. These are the best dress shoes I have ever owned.Update: I have been wearing these in an office environment (with occasional time in the field) 2- 3days per week since last February. They are still incredibly comfortable and look great. The leather ages well, soles have worn thin. I'm going to stop by the local shoe place and see about getting it re-soled. I was looking to buy another pair, hate to see the price is more than $20 higher than what I paid last year. Oh well, worth every penny. Highly recommend.
The shoes are comfortable and nice looking. The size is an exact fit for me. The break-in is about five minutes of walking and then everything is great! I am extremely pleased with this purchase.
This is my third pair over past 4 years. Good value, comfortable and light weight. Have in black and brown. Where them 4-5 days a week and very happy.
Awesome
i did not like this shoe. looks very cheap; not full grain as stated. made in india, worse quality than chinese shoes, even at twenty Nine Bucks i returned it.
Very comfortable shoe, fits true to size.
Fits comfortably, great day to day shoe for business casual
This is the third or fourth pair of these shoes that I have purchased. I purchase for comfort and price. Yes, the sole wears down after a couple of years if you wear regularly, but the shoe holds up and looks nice. I keep buying them in brown and black.
