I can speak to the aesthetics of the shoes -- they seem well-made.  However, I consider myself to have regular-to-narrow feet, and these were too narrow for me.  My arch was squished & suffocating.  I think the toe box was fine (narrow), but the rest of it was too much so.  Similarly, the back part of the heel rests low -- I'm sure some might be used to this style, but I kept feeling like me whole foot was going to slide out.  Just awkward.
