I have flat feet and it has been a struggle to find comfortable shoes. I saw these shoes and thought I might try them for the price. This is a really attractive shoe that fits well and looks great with a suit or trousers. The only issue was the laces which were not properly fastened for the pair I received. A minor thing, but we know shoelaces aren't the easiest thing, especially when it comes to length. In general I am happy with these laces and will look for others to wear with other outfits. Excellent purchase.
