I bought this pair and Steve Madden Evente Slip-OnBlack12 M US men's shoes for $69 trust me if you want quality just buy 2 pairs Steve Madden Evente Slip-OnBlack12 M US men's shoes and you have won. I do not regret it. The Madden Men's Trace LoaferBlack12 M US Shoes appear to have different wear on the creases of the leather upper than any other shoes I've had. If I had the chance to return them I would, but after wearing them to work once it's too late. Walking around the house carpet they seemed perfect, but after a day of use I would have spent more money and bought Steve Madden Men's Evente Slip-OnBlack12 M US for $69 instead. If you're on a budget and you're fine with those after-wear wrinkles, then they're great for you. I found shoes of the same style at the ALDO store, but the quality of the leather was much better and the price was around $80.
