So these shoes are cheap and they look sharp. That holds true when you get them. Like others have noted, these have a horrendous smell when you get them. Ive purchased tons of shoes, lots with new shoe smells and odors, but these exceeded them all in the odor. It was so much that you could smell your shoes walking around in them. But it does wear off.

I got these shoes at the beginning of June 2017. I work in an office at a bank, and these shoes were worn regularly a few times a week, with light use, interchanging them with other dress shoes. They took on several scuffs that were not able to be buffed, and by January the bottom sole on the right shoe starting coming off. By the end of Feburuary, it fell off.

In terms of comfort - they do not breathe well at all. Your feet will be really warm in these. Theyre not very comfortable but I wouldnt say they're uncomfortable either. Theyre ok.

Appearance - Despite being cheap with rubber soles, they sound like high dollar wood sole shoes when you walk. They clack on the floor. And I received compliments on them.

Overall - these were really cheap. They didn't last long but they looked really nice. They were 30 bucks when I bought them. So if I paid 60 for two pairs, I wouldve gotten a year plus out of them which Id say is comparable to dress shoes in the 60 dollar range. If you need something for a lone event like a wedding, these would be great for that sans the initial smell.
