Often the shoes that arrive at my door are less inspiring than the ones I saw in the photos online, but not in this case. (And I feel they look even better on.) Nor were they uncomfortable.  Actually these oxfords met or exceeded expectations on all counts.  They're very attractive and due to the substantial inserts, very comfortable.  In fact, the insole is the best I have ever seen come with a shoe and looks more like the aftermarket insoles you would pay good money for. The bottom sole seems grippy and supportive, and I think I could walk hard floors for quite some time without feeling foot fatigue. I would wear these shoes out on a date, to work in an office, or to any event that required casual-dress, or dress shoes. Great job, Timberland!
