As previous reviews have stated, these shoes had a terribly strong chemical smell when they first arrived. It smelled very similar to gasoline. Not something you want your shoes to smell like. However, after a couple of days of airing out, the smell was completely gone. The shoe design is very nice. I have received numerous compliments on them in my office. I would buy them again. The one thing that did concern me was that the leather across the heel was so hard that it cut into me (literally) the first time I wore them. I had to manually manipulate and stretch the opening before I could wear them. After that, they have been great.

I bought these shoes because they were one of the few square toe black dress shoes out there. I have wide feet (E\'s) and these were very confortable. After you smell wore off, and that took some time, the shows did not last more than 6 months. I wear dress shoes 6 days a week, and these shoes were put through a serious workout. If you intend to wear these only a couple times a week, your milage may be longer. My pair began to split in multiple places where the leather was stitched together. After trying to repair with some super adhesives, the leather began to go next.\r\n\r\nNot a bad shoe, but the price reflects the longevity. My $80 Kenneth Cole\'s have gone the distance.

Smelly! Ordered these to wear with a new suit, but right out of the box and their fancy cloth bag, they reek!, like another reviewer said (I thought it may have been a fluke, but it's not). The style, look, etc. is great. The price is great, too, but the smell is overpowering. You're better off buying a pair that's a couple bucks more (Giorgio Brutini has a great shoe that looks identical) to save yourself the embarrassment because it's that noticeable! Pee-you! they went back.
