Bradley California Sneaker (Men)

I own a pair of CLAE Bradleys (from Nordstrom), and they cost $150 retail... I bought these because I was hoping it was the exact same shoe (even though I know how these type of stores operate)... IT'S NOT THE SAME AS THE MORE EXPENSIVE SHOE. It's a lower quality leather, a random loose stitch, and the laces aren't waxed laces. But to get the look, and seemingly the same comfort (but lessor quality), for $100 less (I actually only paid $39.99)... might be worth it for most people. I just hate that these stores (as well as the brands) pass these off as the actual things they sell for much more money. I'm going to keep and see how they wear (comfort and quality).
