Well worth the money, these easily break in, although you have to remember these are handmade, and therefore one pair will be slightly different from the next. The last pair I owned (which lasted me 11 years) were the same size and I had to get the side stretched at an allen edmonds store. This is a great company that takes pride in its work, and is one of the last US made shoemakers left. repairs are easy, comparied to the other brands of shoes I have bought, which only lasted ~3 years. You could spend ~$120 on a decent pair of shoes that will last you a year of constant use, or you could invest in these.
I have yet to find a shoe that is the same price or less and contains the same level of quality and craftsmanship in the materials used. The sole morphs easily to your foot after ~3-4 days, without the painfull/awkward feeling of a stiff shoe or foot pain.
I am typically a size 10D in everything, but these I am a 9.5 E
Be sure to get some shoe trees to keep them from warping!
