"I ordered these shoes to take with me for a weekend away. After the first day blisters started on the very edges of the balls of my feet since the toe section is a bit narrow. And the creases that formed from walking around collected dirt and cracked. Thus after a day of use they look a year + old and will be tossed. If you need basic oxfords for work and won't be walking around a lot they're okay in a pinch - but it's better to spend more for quality leather that will last."
