The shoes are great for casual dress where you would normally need a pair of black shoes. They look sharp. They are well made and as comfortable as any other chuck shoe. They breathe well through the vents. All in all a good buy.
An important note, they seem to run a bit large. I wear an 11 in mens, they arrived at about 11 1/2, and now as they are breaking in they are about an 11 3/4- 12. I've read others saying the same thing. Buy a half size smaller than you would usually wear.
But still a cool shoe. 4 stars

i looked everywhere for a pair of comfortable, black leather shoes i could wear to work. i'm employed with financial consultants and the type of shoe i would prefer to wear (sneakers) is taboo. so, to beat the system and do my dogs a favor, i got these super-comfortable sneaks and no one is any wiser about it. these are priced just right, fit within corporate standards and just a great shoe. i even outfitted mine with gel-insoles for additional comfort and support. a true five-star rating! 5 stars

I am very picky about my shoes. I won't just go to any shoe store and pick out something basic, functional, or because it's "on sale." This is my second pair of black leather Chucks I've owned since my first pair is in Ohio and I live in Alaska. Every day that I wear them, I get tons of compliments from men and women. If you're looking at these you should also know that Converse has stopped making them, so now is the time to get them. Long live the leather Chucks!! 5 stars

I bought these shoes as a Christmas gift for my boyfriend, they arrived when and as promised in excellent condition. He was immensely pleased with them, said, "they fit like a glove". The shoes are monochromatic black as shown, VERY well made, and the leather is soft and supple. He said they fit like moccassins and that I'll be seeing him in those shoes for years to come.

Thank you! 5 stars

These shoes are comfortable and stylish (in an odd sort of way) and this is a dang good price. 5 stars
