I bought these shoes online. I have no complaints with the quality or Cole Haan. But when I recieved the shoe they had more of a red tint to them and that was not what I was looking for. If it was the brown like it shows in the picture I would have been happy with my purchase. So I am going to return the shoe and keep looking.

This shoe was very nice. I bought it along with another Oxford in a different style because they were among the few classic shoes which came in my size, 10.5 W. They did not fit well. Although, they were certainly longer than I needed, they were not wide enough. The good news was that I was able to go on line and purchase a shoe stretcher. The leather in these shoes and the construction both seem to be good enough to support stretching and now there are breaking in beautifully. Buying shoes has always been a difficulty for me because of my wide feet. One day I will go to London and have a pair made for me and the form stored for the future. However, until then these Cole-Haans are a very stylish alternative. Korál Seattle 2011
