I purchased these shoes before leaving for Paris France, I needed a comfortable walking shoe that looked the part too. I was not disappointed, if you are looking for a comfortable shoe, in both look and feel, these are the shoes for you.

These boat shoes have a very weathered look and are extremely soft and comfortable. Perfect for old shorts or faded jeans. The size was very true.

Awesome boat shoes. The leather is broken in right out of the box - they feel like I've been wearing them for years. Also love the slim soles - not bulky and stiff like some other brands.

Very comfortable casual shoe. Perfect for the office "business casual" environment as well as week-end knock-arounds.

Well made, comfortable. If you plan on wearing these barefoot, maybe go half a size smaller than normal.

I got these shoes some 3-4 weeks ago, here is my experience so far: - Super comfortable. From day one, these shoes felt like I had been wearing them for years. For example, I was worried that, like with other "nautical" shoes, I could get blisters on my Achilles. Even without socks these shoes have been very gentle on my feet. - The look is also good. The "weathered" look is something that attracted me to these shoes and I have to say that it does not look or feel artificial in any way. - Quality feels good so far. It doesn't look like the shoes will fall apart any time soon. As an additional detail, I was so happy with the shoes that I bought another pair in Navy.

Love them! Super comfy, soft leather. Cushion in the heel is a bit lacking, but just start gellin' and you'll be fine. They do run small at first, I'd say about half a size or less, but they're leather so they will stretch to a perfict fit! Pretty narrow too.

The Bestu Uncle Fred shoe is super comfortable. The leather is so soft that it feels like imitation or pleather. They required no break in period what so ever. These came true to size. Normally I wear a 10 in Men's, but I ordered half a size down because I wear these without socks and they fit like a glove. The Hop Khaki color looks more yellowish-green to me, though, but they were on sale so that is cool. Zappos service is excellent as usual.

They are too small. I usually wear UK 7, US 8, Euro 41. They look very nice, quality perfect, extremely soft materials, but I need one size larger. So I'm quite sad because my friend wears these loafers instead of me, his size allows him.

I've given these shoes the benefit of the doubt, as I really like the style, but like my other bedstu shoes they end up being poorly designed. These shoes look comfortable, and people looking at them will think you're comfortable, but in reality they are quite awful to wear. I'm a big foot, size 13, but for me these things felt ill manufactured and just ill-fitting in all the wrong ways. I gave them some time, thought they just needed a bit of stretching, as they came too tight, but after the stretch, they still felt off. The sole of the shoe feels high on the sides and low in the insole, so it feels as if you have rocks pushing your feet up on the edges. I don't want to write a book about these shoes, so suffice to say, they are really quite terrible. I'd avoid the brand as a rule, as my boots had the same issues. They look great, but the work beneath the surface is very sub par, and will leave you wishing you could take them off and chuck them into a trash can. How bad are they? I feel guilty about giving them to Goodwill, as I would feel bad about someone else having to pay for them. try Tretorn. Good brand, and well built.

Terrible quality shoe. I loved the look of the shoe when taken out of the box. Then I put them on. The sole is so thin, you can feel a pebble through them. The inner fabric sole liner only goes half way and when you wear them without sock, the fabric rolls up with your foot when you are taking off the shoe.

I don't think my husband would wear green, ours are brown but after everyone changed styles this year this was the closest match. He says they are comfortable and breaking in nicely. I think they look great and were a reasonable price, though I miss spending less for the same kind of shoes at time, hopefully they will last longer...we will see!

Good-looking shoe overall that runs about a size big. Probably better with pants than shorts (it's a slightly "chunkier" shoe than say Sperry Topsiders). Has a somewhat annoying insole that occasionally pulls up when taking off the shoe. I bought a second pair, however, based on how much I like the look and comfort.
