I wore these when they had the resurgence back in the 90's when Ellen wore them on her sitcom. They were very stylish, came in a zillion colors, were cheap, and super comfortable. I had seen Hushpuppie reissue them a year ago but it was only when I was at a work event in Beverly Hills; a guy who works in my same field (real estate) and has a TV show selling Multi-Million Dollar real estate was there, and HE had on a pair. Immediately I came home to order a pair. The toe box is a little less blunt that before (good!) the suede was rich & dark (Better!) and the comfort was superior (Best!) The first day I wore them for 12 hours during a TV show taping where I was on my feet for a couple of hours...absolutely the best. Checked the other colors and a bit disappointed-maybe a true Navy Blue? The original Gray? Miss the off-white to wear during the Summer.
