I use to give these a five star review. And though they are still one of my favorite shoes ever, the quality has gone down terribly. These shoes use to last three years or better. The last two pair I ordered I got less than a year. One pair was actually closer to seven months before the heel and footbed, literally, broke and separated. Probably not gonna waste my money on them again. Sad. I really did love them. Or at least, I use to.ran narrower than their other stylesWe first purchased these at The Mens Warehouse for my husband. He travelled locally and was responsible for checking all maintenance in large retail stores from the roof to the floors. He was on his feet sometimes 8-10 hours a day walking, ladders, stairs, and concrete. He boasted about the comfort and continued to purchase them for a few years. After they quit carrying them, I found them at a local department store at a much higher price. Now, 4 years after wearing out his last pair, he is having issues with his feet, and I was excited to find them online here. He has only worn them for less than a week, and he says he can really tell the difference.I know one concern he had when he first purchased them, is that they are so nice that they look like dress shoes. He used to wear them with khakis but now wears jeans in this job. Yes, they are nice, but they do not look out of place with his jeans. This is an example of how form meets fashion. I don't think anyone will be disappointed.I found my first pair of SM shoes at Nordstrom Rack in downtown Seattle. I bought them because they were $60 (marked down from $135) and they were AMAZINGLY comfortable.These shoes are built to last. My first pair I wore every day for 2 years to work, and I still wear them on casual days - they are getting bit scuffed now, but are still favorites.I typically wear 11.5, and the SM sizing is pretty true to form.I wear these shoes every day to work. Standing all day and walking is surprisingly comfortable with these on.The leather is amazing quality - the soft interior is like a foot massage when I put them on.This particular shoe (the Belmont Oxford) is a bit pointier in the toe than you can see in the pic. The toe comes to a 2 in. wide point, not the 3 in. wide or box toe I expected, but they look awesome anyway.For the price, these shoes are a steal - normally I would expect shoes of this quality to be in the $200+ range, and to be honest, I have NEVER worn a more comfortable loafer or oxford in my 40 some-odd years.I just love these dress shoes by Sandro Moscoloni. This is my third pair to purchase and expect to continue to buy them. Do you remember those days when you would buy a pair of dress shoes knowing that you would have to endure two weeks of blisters before they were broken in? Not the case here. These slip on and immediately feel great. And it is not from using cheap components. There is leather inside and out. The sole is flexible and wears well.The other aspect is that these are very stylish shoes. None of the blocky shoes that look like they were made for a mechanic. These look wonderful and give a very professional appearance. The fit is a tiny bit loose - which is what I prefer. This allows for airflow and your toes to still be able to move around within the shoes.Overall - I love these shoes and highly recommend them.I bought these shoes in brown a year or so ago, and recently saw them here in black, so I bought them immediately! They are the most comfortable pair of shoes I've ever owned, and that is from the moment they came out of the box. There is ZERO time required for them to be broken in. They are worth every dime. I know, they're expensive, but you will buy two pairs of cheaper shoes that you won't like even half as much in the time that these will last for you. I wear the black pair to work almost every day, and the brown pair much less often, but both are easily managing the daily use I put them through. I did put a leather protecting gel/cream to preserve them before the first use, and then I usually do the same before any important events (i.e. weddings and other formal events). I hope you buy them...you'll thank me later!I got my first pair of Sandro Moscoloni shoes six years ago. This new pair is just as good as that first pair was; they are absolutely the most comfortable shoes on the planet. If you've recently bought a new pair of shoes that was uncomfortable when you first got them, and people keep telling you that they "have to be broken in" and then they'll be comfortable, don't believe them. These Sandro Moscoloni oxfords are incredibly comfortable right out of the box, and only get better the more you wear them. If you've been looking for a casual dress shoe that's so comfortable you'll occasionally choose them over your sneakers even when you *don't* need a dressier shoe, this is the pair you've been looking for.I had a pair of moscolini shoes that lasted me over 15 years before they started falling apart. The model I loved is no longer in production, so I ordered these.Pretty happy with them.Same quality I expect from them. The uppers are finely stiched and the leather is top notch. The insole is comfortable for a guy who is on his feet and moving a lot - I am a high school teacher who believes in working a room like a politician at a fund-raiser. the toes are longer than I care for but that is the style.All in all, you get what you pay for. These shoes are not cheap but they promise to be another good buy.UPDATE!One of them is having a wear issue. I am waiting to hear from them. Haven't heard from them yet and that is a little disappointing. Dropped a star.Second Update - 3AUG18The wearing is more pronounced. Never heard back from them. Another star dropped...I cannot recommend these shoes. When the manufacturer won't step up and deal with a problem with their product, time to find another company to give your money to.I CANNOT recommend these shoes anymore.
