Bad Shoe
These shoes looked great when they arrived, however after wearing them 3 times they look terrible. The spot where laces tie are completely worn and now unwearable. Will be returning.

Very discouraged by the quality
Very discouraged by the quality of this particular shoe. I always considered Johnston & Murphy to be a high quality product. However this shoe has started to fail after less then a year, and very limited use. The leather is starting to peel off the shoe exposing a unfinished material below. Unwearable at this point other then maybe mowing your lawn. I have an email to J&M and we will see how strongly their commitment to quality really is. At this juncture I would not recommend anyone waste their money on this particular shoe.

Iffy
Great quality, obviously. Unfortunately, these aren't nearly as comfortable as my old pair. They don't fit as nice either, but this is as close as I could get to my old pair. A little disappointed, but I'm still confident the shoes will last and they look great. Please bring back the old versions.

The shoes are beautiful! I
The shoes are beautiful! I tried them on once and they were tight. I want to see if they relax and are comfortable. If not, I want to exchange for a wider shoe.

Wide Shoes
Because of the awkward size of my feet (13 1/2 extra wide) I frequently have problems finding shoes that fit. These not only fit perfectly but they are comfortable.

Good fit, Nice shoe. Color does not match pic
These shoes are comfortable and only took a day to break in. The size is true as well. However if you are looking for a brown shoe, I was disappointed when I received mine and they are basically tan or light brown. The picture is much darker than what I received.

Fourth pair same shoe - a good thing
I bought my first pair of this shoe about 10 years ago and this is my 4th pair (thanks for the warehouse full of them somewhere). This is a good show for me, I wear them for work mostly and they hold up pretty well.

So comfortable
Love how the shoe looks and feels. Wear this pair for work though I have the same shoe in brown that I wear casually and the reason I sought this one out to wear to work. The lone drawback that I have seen in my line of work in aviation, the soft leather can rip or take damage getting in and out of the seats.

Comfortable and Classy
We have ordered several pairs of these shoes for my missionary sons. They walk a lot, and these shoes are comfy and durable plus they look so nice.

Terrific dress shoe with XC4 comfort
Very comfortable shoe, not stiff. Looks is good enough to be worn with a suit.

Hybrid width doesn't work
I liked the original design on this shoe. The current version is meant for both medium and wide width with an insert to adjust the size. The problem is that with the insert in, the shoe rides too low leaving too much of a gap below the ankle. Taking the insert out leaves a gap in the back of the shoe and makes it rub the back of the foot. I guess this was supposed to be cost saving measure, but it makes the shoe unwearable. I'll be sending it back for a refund and looking for a different shoe.
