Overall I find the interesting and high quality shoes. It took me almost a shoehorn to put them on, which made me feel a bit like an elderly gentleman. The style is unfamiliar to me, it looks more like moccasins/slippers/lounge shoes than dress shoes but is leather/suede or real material which means they probably won't react well to water like rainy days, puddles, spills, splashes etc. I also take care of cleaning them a bit, so I do my best to keep them clean. These are good shoes with decent soles. It also has built in cushioning for extra comfort. As for the sizes, make sure you choose the right size as there will be no wasted space. Order your normal size, so if you're 11, order 11.
