Not only are these good looking shoes comfortable they are incredibly lightweight and yet manage to be durable. I've owned one pair nearly a year for work that have held up well needing only the occasional shine. My only gripe is a wide lengthwise gap in the sole under the heel that is large enough for the odd chunk of gravel to get stuck in. Although that isn't a common occurence it is annoying if only for the effort required to pry the gravel loose.
