These are serviceable shoes and really don't look bad. They will do fine if you just need a quick pair for a graduation, your cousins dogs wedding, or some other random family event. I would also say the design is actually really nice. But, I have two points. First, they shed a LOT of dye onto your socks. I had to convert a pair of khaki socks to rags because they were so stained by these. Second, although they are cheap, they also definitely look cheap. You can dress them up pretty well, but they still have that I got court vibe going. In other words, you get exactly what you pay for. Not a bad thing, but just know what you're getting.
