The shoe is very "neat-looking." I bought them for my daughter, who is in her final year of nursing school. She loves them! However, the description stated the shoes were nubuck. The shoes that arrived were cotton/canvas. Since she really needed them, I did not send them back. Nubuck is a high level grain leather that is brushed and suede-like in appearance. I did not get what I paid for. Again, if she had not needed the shoes so badly for that very day, I would have returned them. My dissatisfaction is not with the make or sturdiness of the shoe; it is with the fact that they were canvass. There would have been little price difference, so I "ate crow" on this one.
