Great shoes .....casual or work. The sizing is off by about 1/2 size, so order smaller than you think, or you'll end up exchanging them like I did.

Still not 100% correct in size versus other shoes I wear from Florscheim and Rockport, so I'll need thicker socks to make them fit for me.

This is a shoe that looks great in the office or more casual settings. It is very comfortable for a dress shoe. While it takes two colors to polish it, it is convenient with traveling because it goes with black or brown accessories.

I had a pair just like this style and I literally wore them out and I could not find a pair in a wide width in our town. They are a little tight in the width but I am wearing a very thin sock until I break them in. Price was the same as our retailers in our town.

I'm an attorney working in a medium sized town at a firm in the Midwest. When I walk to work or court, I wear shoes that can handle rain or snow. Around the office, those shoes aren't the most comfortable.

I purchased a pair of these loafers after seeing them on sale on onlineshoes.com. I intended to wear them around the office to give my feet a breather from stiffer shoes.

I am pleased with my purchase. The brown and black colors permit me to wear the shoes with a brown or black belt. Consequently, they match just about every outfit.

The shoes are quite comfortable. They bend easily with my foot. They breathe enough to make my feet happy. Sometimes I forget that I'm even wearing shoes.

There are no cons for these shoes, but I'll list some attributes that might affect your purchasing decision. First, when they're new, the leather has a glossy look that is characteristic of soft artificial leathers. However, I'm sure that as the shoes age, they will weather like true leather.

The shoe soles have rubber grips under the front. These grips prevent the shoes from making that distinctive "clomp" sound on hard floors. The soles are leather, so if your workplace requires leather sole shoes, these qualify. The rubber gripping does provide higher traction than traditional leather sole shoes. The soles also feel softer and more flexible, so the break-in period is a short walk around the office.

Finally, the size is slightly off. I'm a size 10 1/2, but I mistakenly ordered these in size 10. Well, they fit me. In fact, my heel will lift from the shoe slightly as I step forward, so they fit me dead on. I wouldn't run in these, though. They might kick off during a sprint from an angry client.

What is frustrating is I ordered Johnston & Murphy's Dawson boots along with these in a size 10. The boots were painfully tight and I'm sending them back for a size 10 1/2. I find it so strange that J&M's sizes vary by shoe type. I thought I was nuts until I explained my problems to a shoe repairman.

In summary, it's a classy shoe. Don't pay more than $100 for a pair. You can wear them with blacks and browns. Order 1/2 a size down.

Take note that I have never worn these outside, so I don't know how they'll hold up to long walks or exposure to unexpected rain.
