Detailed Review
This Florsheim model excels in cultivating a sophisticated appearance with its classic cap toe design, making it versatile for both work and special events. The leather construction not only contributes to its aesthetic appeal but also enhances its breathability, keeping your feet cool during extended wear.
When it comes to comfort, the memory foam footbed truly stands out. You will find that the cushioning adapts to your foot shape, providing personalized support as you walk. This is particularly beneficial if you're on your feet for long periods, such as during meetings or social gatherings.
However, it's worth noting that some users may experience a break-in period, which is common with high-quality leather shoes. While they may fit snugly at first, they typically soften up after a few wears, molding to your feet for ultimate comfort.
Overall, the Florsheim Men's Corbetta Cap Toe Oxford is a worthy investment for those seeking stylish, comfortable footwear that can withstand the test of time. Whether paired with a suit or dress trousers, these oxfords are sure to elevate your outfit while providing the comfort needed for all-day wear.

Upon first glance at this shoe I thought no way would it fit my size 10 foot that requires a 4E due to bone spur on big toe. Design makes it longer and look a bit narrower. I was pleasantly surprised, the shoes fit very comfortably and looked nice with my tuxedo. Danced long into the evening in them.
Very comfortable dress shoe. I have difficulty with some shoes being cut too high for my ankle bone, this one is cut perfectly, no rubbing. I can wear it all day without issue. It's a tad bit longer than it appeared in the photo, but the fit is really good and I actually like it better than the stubby look I'm more accustomed to.
Cole Haan Men's Lenox Hill Cap Oxford,Best business shoe – easy to slip on, leather is not very shiny but this is good in the sense scuff marks do not show up as very noticeable. The inside heel / sole is made with a rubber like material that makes it comfortable for every day walking. The bottom of the shoe had good grip so you don’t need to spend the extra money for a shoe cobiler to finish the shoe with a tap.Florsheim Men's Montinaro Cap Toe OxfordThe difference between the corbetta and Montinaro is the Corbetta has a rubber grip in betted in the front sole of the shoe and the Montinaro does not. Otherwise it is the same shoeFlorsheim Mens Corbetta Cap Toe OxfordThe difference between the corbetta and Montinaro is the Corbetta has a rubber grip in betted in the front sole of the shoe. This was my number one choice for style, shine, quality and comfort. However once I used the shoe for a day there was a significant crease that showed up on the top of the shoe. This worried me because overtime I could see this getting worse and possibly shorten the life of the shoe if not taken care of properly. I wanted this to be the winner but I could not get over the crease issue. The inside sole has nice leather with memory foam.Anthony Veer Mens Clinton Cap-toe Oxford Leather Shoe in Goodyear Welted ConstructionBest formal dress shoeIn all accounts if you want a formal dress shoe that has leather throughout. Style, and shine are great. You will need to break these shoes in as it does not have a lot of bend to the bottom of the shoe. The shoe comes with a shoe-horn.Stacy Adams Men's Kordell OxfordBest value shoe – not neccesarily quality. The shoe has the appearance of a nice dress shoe but the shoe was slightly big for my foot and when I tied the shoe tight there was excess material that crunched up. It is also a synthetic type leather.
I got these for my husband who wears dress shoes to work just about every day. They were perfect and beautiful right out of the box and he loved them, wearing them to church and to work.
Comfortable all evening, got several compliments. Glad I bought them.
Wore these dress shoes for over 12 hours and didn’t want to kill myself.
The shoes were exactly as expected and arrived on time and in great shape. The shoes are well built and only slightly uncomfortable breaking them in. This is day four wearing them and they're already conforming to my feet.
So I give these 4 stars overall because of an issue I had with the size. Florsheim has always been very comfortable shoes for me especially because I'm on my feet almost all day long. When I got the shoes I tried them on for the first time and it felt as if I had ordered two sizes too big. The toe box was very long, almost like a clown shoe and I felt it just looked ridiculous. The rest of the shoe fit was very large and loose. The worst part about a fit like that is that my feet will slide around inside the shoe and then I'll end up with blisters all over my feet from the socks sliding around. As for the quality of the shoes it met my expectations. The leather is always good quality and they break in very quick (Usually less than 5-7 days). I found that these are the only brand of shoes I can wear comfortably that keep the very professional and formal looks of high class shoes (Not a large solid rubber sole, no complex stitching and padding everywhere) and that's what I like especially with having to wear a suit all day. If you were to order these I recommend going a size smaller than what you would get normally as the size would balance out.
