This is the second pair of Clarks UnKenneth shoes I have purchased. The other pair is very dark brown and after having them for at least a year or more, they have kept their shape, look good and polish to a high sheen. The shoe itself is well-made and the complete structure adds up to a comfortable shoe, all-round. It does fit a little larger than one would expect {perhaps as much as a half size) but this is easily adjusted by the use of a proper adhesive pad, placed on the inside of the tongue. The spacing seems to be 'over the instep', but then again, nothing is perfect for everyone. The style is semi-casual but very acceptable for most occasions, both business and casual . I would highly recommend this shoe, and in fact, any of Clarks Unstructured footwear. Excellent footwear for any one who needs good looks and comfortable that lasts all day. For a shoe of this quality, the price is unbelievable in a day when so much of the available footwear is little more than a "throw away product after periods of short wear". With minimum care, this shoe is a keeper.
