I gave the suede shoes to my husband for xmas and he liked the fit and style. However it is only mid-February and they look like old shoes! The suede near the gusset is stretched out and looks ripped although it isn't. They are badly wrinkled and just look worn-out. I planned to buy him the black leather version but they probably won't be more durable. Guess I'll have to look for a different brand.
My husband purchased a pair similar to these almost 18 years ago and has been looking for something just as comfortable. Well we found them, he know uses these shoes for work every day; he says they're very comfortable and help to keep his feet warm.
