This is without a doubt the worst quality shoes I have ever purchased.  They look great and are fairly comfortable.  However, the second time I wore them, I noticed the leather split at the toe, so they weren't presentable any more.  This happened about 2 hours after I had them on.  About 2 hours later, I thought I had stepped in something because I noticed something was stuck to the sole.  I realized instead, the sole was made out of paper, and my walking on the shoe for only that period of time was more than it could handle, and the shoe already was falling apart.  I'm questioning whether I really even received a Polo product, or if this was copy Polo.  I understand now why everyone is so upset about our USA olympians wearing Polo jackets that were made in China.  This is pathetic.  Unfortunately, I waited out my window of opportunity to start wearing the shoes for me to be able to return them, so certainly if you buy them wear them immediately, so you can return yours after the second wear.
