These shoes are amazing. Theyre very comfortable and go with almost everything. The first time you wear them they seem a little snug and narrow. However, they do loosen up. Theres no need to break them in. They fit like a glove and feel amazing on your feet. I will absolutely be buying in more colors! I like the look of these a little better than TOMS. I would not suggest wearing these with socks, but if you do I would wear the thinner no show socks. Highly recommend!
