I have not even wore these a full day yet, but I can tell these shoes are a winner. Perfect balance between firm support and a cushioned step. I do not consider these dress shoe, but more of an upscale semi casual/semi-dressy kind of shoe. In my mind, dress shoes have leather soles, but I may be an anachronism. In any event, these seem to be very comfortable, well-made shoes that look really sharp. I bought them for an upcoming trip when I will be doing a fair amount of walking, and I do not think any break-in would be required. Really happy with these so far.UPDATE: Wore these to a conference and got compliments the whole day.I had the brown Cole Haan and really loved them for their comfort and style. Searched multiple places to get the black one but was unsuccessful. Was lucky to find my size and it fits perfectly. If you are looking for a good mix of casual and formal this is a great product. Highly recommend itThe shoes are comfortable once you break them in. They are light weight and appear to have good construction. Good grippy rubber sole the insides are like tennis shoes. Would definitely recommend.My husband loves these shoes. Light weight and looks sharp!Bought an identical pair in brown from a shoe store, and they fit perfectly. Perhaps it was an issue with this one pair? I returned them because they were way too big.I like everything about the priceFor work and great product.Shoes are great but that need a day to break in. After having the shoes over 30 days the shoe strings snapped. Cole haan will not even sell you replacement shoe strings.
