Excellent Quality for the $$$, sizing is tough (see below)
So like I said, I'm happy to give this product 5 stars because for the money, I doubt there's much better out there. I've gotten tons of compliments already from people that definitely had no idea I only paid about $60/pair for black and umber. And once you get the sizing right, its all good...However, I read all the customer reviews about personal experiences with ordering the correct sizes (which were all over the place), and also read the product description which clearly states that the shoes run 1/2 size large, so order 1/2 size smaller than you typically wear. Because some people said they were true to size, and others claimed to need up to 1.5 sizes smaller, I went with the product description and ordered 1/2 size down; I wear an 11 for everything and have most of my life, so I ordered a 10.5.When I received the shoes, they looked like flippers. I could have stored my wallet in the tip of my shoe and still had wiggle room for my toes.I returned both pairs for free through amazon due to "inaccurate website description", and re-purchased them at a size 10 (now a full size down). Even though they are still a tad too large, they now fit more comfortably and the laces tie tight without the inside and outside quarters smashing together (a clear sign your shoes are too big). I could have probably fit just as well if not better into a size 9.5, allowing room for the leather to expand with wear, but this wasn't a big deal for meMY RECOMMENDATION is that you START with a full size down and see where it goes from there. I could have probably fit just as well if not better into a size 9.5 (1.5 sized smaller than my normal), allowing room for the leather to expand with wear, but this wasn't a big deal for me. The shoes definitely run way too large to ever be considered true to size, and for me, the half size down was still way too big. You have to understand that shoes are not meant to be bought without trying on, so it's inevitable that buying shoes online will result in sizing issues every now and then. As long as amazon keeps their wonderful return policies in effect, exchanging poorly sized shoes is a breeze.

Great Value for the Price
- GET A HALF SIZE LOWER THAN NORMALThe shoes are more pointy than the pictures would have somebody believe, I attached a picture of my shoes. But that doesn't mean this isn't a great product. I also have general tips for getting the greatest life out of these.PROS:- Grip Sole made my feet stick to the sidewalk (Good for Winter)- Glossy finish on leather (Was it Burnished?)- Comfortable! The cushioning on the inside of the shoe is surprisingly good. One can walk for an hour and not feel pain in the heel.- Included bag is of great qualityCONS:- The sole takes damage pretty quickly. I walked for an hour to break into the new shoes and already the wood design on the sole is fading from the dirt on the sidewalk. Could use some plastic inserts to prevent this. Ask a local cobbler about it. (This I don't take too harshly considering the price)The bottom line is that this shoe is an amazing value for its price. The shiny look, comfort, and price all make this a high recommendation on my end. A definite recommendation for a first dress shoe, possibly my favorite value pair.GENERAL TIPS FOR GREATER LIFE OF LEATHER SHOES:- Shoe gets soaked? Insert the paper that came with- Invest in a CEDAR SHOETREE. Moisture and bacteria will be eliminated while having the shoe last longer from stretching.- A proper SHOEHORN should be used for inserting your foot. This prevents the back from being ruined.- Prevent rain and snow from reaching the shoe by investing in an OVERSHOE- Wipe off any dirt as soon as noticed- Polish when needed (Not very often if not worn daily)- If you can, get more than one pair and intertwine between wearing the two. I will purchase another pair to do just this.Finally, get a matching belt for the most classy look. Luckily Mio Marino sells leather belts on Amazon.--I will be buying another pair! These are great value.

Super slick and stylish. Comfortable to wear.
Really great dress shoes for men. Super stylish. I got a lot of compliments the first time i wore them. The toe is long but that is the style. It does not effect the feel or fit. Best of all, they are super comfortable to wear. I don't like wearing hard dress shoes but these were not a problem. They seem to be well constructed too. Bought one pair at first to see how I liked them. I liked them so much that i got a pair in black as well. Can't beat the price for a men's dress shoe.

My Wedding shoes!!
These shoes look and feel pretty amazing!! I wore it for my wedding last week and only after hours of pictures and a couple hours of dancing in the hot Jamaican sun did these start to hurt my feet. Loved it!! Only thing "negative" I can say is that they run a little large. I ordered a half size down than my normal size.

ZERO Risk ... Best post sale costumer service ever.. Fits exactely as the size I use to wear..
I usually wear 9.I ordered 3 shoes 8.5, 9 and 9.5 . I ended up keeping the 9 size because it fits the best. It feels so confortable. I have not tried it in a long period of time yet though, but I love the design and the material.It is overpriced a little , I wish if they sell there shoes under $50 (i do not think It worth more than that) I woukd buy almost every design they have!Eventuely, I loved how it looks and fits, and so happy with my purchase.The costomer services refunded me the prices of the other 2 fully (no fees were charged for the return shipping) and they were dealling with my requests in a professional and helpful way . They did everything they can to earn my business.

nice shoes, but long
the shoes are synthetic made , but in a very nice style...I am a 10 , but had to order an 8 , since these models run a tad long, go down, two complete size or a size and a half, for a good fit. delivered promptly, without problems,

Schöne Farbe & Form, Kaufempfehlung
Der Schuh hat eine sehr schöne Farbe & eine ebenso schöne Form. Der Farbübergang von der Spitze zum Schuh ist sehr modisch. Ebenso die Sohle sieht sehr modisch und schick aus. Mein Problem war jedoch das die Schuhe sehr groß ausfallen tuen. Weshalb ich sie leider auch zurück schicken musste.Sofern es die Schuhe in meiner größer gäbe, hätte ich sie mir nochmal gekauft. Da es einfach sehr stabile, schöne & modische Schuhe sind.Beim Kauf beachten: lieber eine Nummer kleiner bestellen

Auf den ersten Blick gut
und edel. Aber bei näherem Hinsehen lässt die Verarbeitung zu wünschen übrig. Alleine die Absatzbefestigung durch zwei nicht einmal ganz eingeschlagene Nägel dürfte der Tod eines jeden Holz- Laminatfussbodens sein. Rücksendung ist veranlasst.

Sehr schöne und elegante Schuhe
Sehr elegante Schuhe, gut gearbeitet. Ich habe sie behalten, obwohl sie für mich sehr weit ausfallen. Auch nach mehrmaligem Tragen sehen sie weiterhin aus wie neu. Eine schmäler geschnittene Variante wäre toll.
