"Initially, I was very excited to get a pair of these Italian shoes! They looked very nice. However, when I put them on for the first time, it felt like I was wearing the shoes made of wood, not leather. Very hard and very uncomfortable! I was trying to wear them for several months, and I would get blisters most of the time. Very disappointing... I now understand why the price was so surprisingly low. No more Mike Konos for me!"
