I love these shoes. They are certainly a head turner. My first Allen Edmonds and they are very comfortable. I have wide feet so having this in 10 ee was an eye opener. Initially wearing dress shoes, I would size up to 11 1/2. The difference now is comfort and the way I walk. Now, I can walk properly without the worry of tripping on my shoes. If you get behind the looks of the shoes, you then notice the quality of the leather. Overall, these are my favorite shoes to wear.
