These are not what I expected from Kenneth Cole, they are sturdy, and fairly good looking, but VERY uncomfortable, even broken in. The material is man-made and it "pops" on the top of the shoe when you walk, because the material is so rigid. It is quite annoying in quiet rooms. And getting them on is quite the process, if you have a shoe horn you'll want to use it.
Overall, I give them 3 stars because of the low cost and sturdiness, but comfort, fit and general wear satisfaction are greatly lacking.
