This is a good shoe for the office if you are a tech or worker - not an executive.  You will not be wearing these shoes to your friend's wedding.  They are good looking and rugged but not very elegant and sophisticated for dress.

Comfort:
No break-in - these shoes are comfortable - and breathable with vents and breathable technology.  The sole is soft and the leather is soft as well.  Support on the arch is felt.  They run big - this is a somewhat wide looking shoe.  I usually wear size 8.5 which I ordered but then exchanged for the size 8.  Even the 8 is a bit roomy but I am keeping them regardless.

Material:
Nice soft leather and good stitching - the leather is also pre-rubbed by hand at the factory to enhance luster and durability - it is also recommended that you treat the leather occasionally.  WARNING - These are vented to in the RAIN you will get wet feet.

Price:
Very expensive - these shoes are over $100 and they should be in the $60-$70 range.

Style:
While I love the look of this shoe and the stitch patterns and lines this is not a dressy shoe.  It is for casual wear at the office - not an executive shoe.  The laces are clumsy and will protrude from the bottom of your pants - the shoe is wide.  You will not see anyone wearing a tux and these shoes - these are business casual ONLY.

I'll update as they wear down and let you know how they hold up......
