These are OK (Amazon's definition of three stars). They look decent - I think Kenneth Cole's niche is using a trendy modification on tradition, and these are no exception. They are definitely trendy/young. I usually like Kenneth Cole Reaction products, but this one is not my favorite.

As for wearing, I consider them comparable to "driving shoes," which are a step between slippers and casual shoes. The bottom has good grip and includes grippers on the rear - making it the perfect driving shoe design, actually.

Note that they are man made materials. Color is fine, and you'd never know they aren't leather by their looks.
