One of the most comfortable dress shoes I have 'ever' worn! I orginally purchased this shoe for a holiday dress shoe. I have since worn it during my work day as a telecommunications consultant, where I spend a full eight hours (plus) on my feet....in these amazingly comfortable shoes! There is no sacrificing comfort for style in these! Thank you Cole Haan for an incredible selection of footwear from casual to dress, that works in ever aspect of my life. Looks as good with my suit or dress slacks, as it does with my jeans and vest.
