Extremely comfortable.  Stylish.  Breathable.  I love to wear them.

They fit well, but might run a little small in sizing.

EDIT 12.05.2013 - I won't take any stars off because, considering the style of the shoe, maybe they are supposed to deteriorate.  What I'm saying is that these are real hobo shoes at this point.  You can see my big toe on the left shoe and my pinky toe on the right.  Multiple places have lost the "burlap" covering and reveal just the backing underneath.  It's been 20 months, though, so I won't expect too much from a pair of $50 loafers.
