Men's Leather Shoes

The shoes are very comfortable, excellent quality, excellent fit, and genuine leather. Unusually buy more expensive shoes that cost over $200 but since I bought these shoes and felt the immediate comfort, I will continue to purchase these shoes. Plus the price is right! And the great need is that Amazon guarantees its products! I cannot say enough about the shoes and how comfortable they are and produced with quality. I am thinking on buying now 2 more pairs in different colors. It is a type of shoe that looks good in casual dress or business attire. Amazing! Mr. OP

First off, I really enjoy high-quality, goodyear welted shoes with nice full-grain leather. These shoes are none of those things. However, I was looking for a decent pair of work (office) shoes I could wear during the winter months, and not have to destroy my nicer shoes in the salt and snow. These shoes serve that purpose very well.When I first opened the box, I noticed that the shoes seem to be made quite well for inexpensive no-name shoes. The fit and finish is great, and is consistent on both shoes. There is no exposed glue, loose seams, etc... Even though the leather isn't full-grain, it's still genuine leather, and has a nice finish on it. When I first wore them, they were comfortable, albeit the leather in the heels was a bit stiff- and rubbed a little until it broke in. I never got a blister, and this process only took a few wears to soften the leather enough to alleviate the rubbing.I have recently compared these to similar style Nautica shoes, and found the craftsmanship on the Bruno Marcs to far exceed the Nautica's. I don't own the original Cole Haan's; but I have a couple buddies who do, and they thought I was wearing Cole Haan's. When I told them they were just cheap Amazon knock-offs, they were surprised, and wanted me to send them a link to them. IMO, the Cole Haan's are not a good deal at all. They are just as expensive as high-quality goodyear welted shoes; but they cannot be resoled like GYW shoes, and they won't last nearly as long. They are basically an athletic shoe with a mid-grade full-grain leather upper. There is no way they should ever cost more than $100, yet they do. That is why I feel the Bruno Marc's are a MUCH better buy. They look just as nice, and should last just as long as the Cole Haan's. These are probably the best $40 shoes I've purchased.

I will come back and update this once I receive the correct size, but it will be helpful for anyone buying the shoe to know that it runs 1 to 1.5 sizes big. I normally wear a 9 or 9.5 (US) depending on the shoe, so I bought a 9 in this one. Too big. Returned it and bought an 8.5, thinking that might do the trick. Still too big. I'm in the process of returning this one and getting an 8, which I hope will do the trick.As far as the shoe itself goes, it seems very comfortable with good support and nice cushioning in the heel and midsole. The leather looks sharp with a slight fade in the brown from one end of the shoe to the other. The white on the sole makes the shoe color pop and not look like your ordinary wingtip-style shoe. I'm not crazy about the type of shoelace they chose - it's stiff, thin, and almost waxy. I may opt for a softer lace once I get used to shoe. All in all, it seems like a good shoe for the price, and I am looking forward to getting to wear my pair when the right size gets in.

Best dress shoes ever purchased for comfort, probably more comfortable than sneakers.I have narrow feet, I did add tongue pad and heal pad, but these shoes are great. Can walk in for a long time. Have held up well after 6 mos. I'd buy again!

True to size, light, and good for being on my feet all day. Leather is of good thickness, and holds up to some pretty regular scuffs and scrapes. Takes polish pretty well. With this color I recommend putting a tiny bit of Cordovan polish (think the metal nib of a ballpoint pen) in a pea-sized bit of brown and mixing it; it blends fairly well with the original.

I like the comfort and fit. Nice leather. Although they are long enough, the shoelace tongues almost touch each other and I am afraid that if they stretch at all it may become a problem. Maybe I have narrow feet? Happy with the shoes otherwise.

Shoes looked good. I’m giving 3 stars because they sent the wrong size. The box they came in said 9.5 but they were a size 10 so had to send them back.

It was blown away how comfortable this shoe was. Works very weel as a shoe for the office as well as a casual shoe for an evening out for dinner, movie, or similar event. The only issue is they are a bit pricey however worth it if you use it as an everyday shoe.
