    Gel Heel is Uncomfortable- I love this shoe except for the gel pack right under the heel. I feel it when I walk and it is uncomfortable. If Hushpuppy had a smooth bottom to the shoe insert, this shoe would be 5 stars. Maybe it will not bother you but it does to me.

    First time with Zappos - I have always had a problem getting shoes with the right width. When ever I go to a local store up here in Maine I can only find shoes that fit if they are 1 inch to long. Here at Zappos, I just searched with SIZE 9, WW, Brown , Mens Dress and had plenty of choices. It took 5 days to get them here and guessing I did not need a 9 1/2 shoe I received a pair of Hush puppies size 9 WW and they were right on the money. The shoe fit correctly, the width was perfect, and I am very pleased with the shoes. Good job Zappos, nice to find a company that goes the extra mile. Gives value for money and made my day. Gas costs enough these days to have paid for the shipping. I was very impressed. Will certainly shop again here.

    Really like this shoe. Square toe makes it fit me better than most. Feels equivalent to a 4 or 5 E width. Gel pad fell apart in the first pair but Zappos customer service was great and exchanged the shoes. Jury is still out on longevity.

    Looks good - feels average. The shoe has a good dressy look to it. The arch support is nearly non-existent, but the shoe is comfortable enough to wear all day.

    Medium - I was surprised that the only real support was a flimsy insert. Men who would wear a 15 3E are going to need more support than I felt this shoe offered. My husband was ok with them. He said it doesn't get much better than this, but I just can't believe that. The first pair we ordered had to be returned because the gel pack in the insert broke and leaked all over the inside of the shoe.

    Hush Puppies - An American Legend

    In 1958, Hush Puppies created the world's first casual shoe, signaling the beginning of today's relaxed style.

    By utilizing supple suede in combination with lightweight crepe soles, Hush Puppies created a soft, breathable and very comfortable shoe - an innovation that would ultimately change the kind of shoes we wear. In an era when footwear choices were limited, Hush Puppies shoes provided the world with a new alternative. A modern shoe embraced for its authentic style and casual flair.

    Since the beginning, the beloved basset hound has embodied the easygoing nature that is Hush Puppies. Introduced during a time of new freedoms and changing lifestyles, the Hush Puppies brand name and mascot quickly became symbolic of the emerging optimism of mid-century America.

    Relaxed and classic in design, Hush Puppies shoes have always defined what it means to be modern and casual. Today, Hush Puppies continues to innovate, bringing technical excellence and genuine style to men, women, and children in over 120 countries.

    A revolutionary idea - born fifty years ago - continues to inspire Hush Puppies today.

    from NNew York City

    Great shoe for navigating the streets of NYC! My husband loves these shoes because they can be either dressy or casual and they are very comfortable. In NYC you do a lot of walking and these are by far his faves for that. These are actually his third pair of the HP Strategy's, when one pair wears out we just replace them. Also I must add that he is a shoe killer, he can ruin a pair of regular men's leather dress shoes in a matter of months but these shoes have managed to hold up to his abuse, we just replace them when they not wear out not because they've fallen apart.

    Brands I'd also recommend: Ben Sherman tennies, they're so cool!

    Reasonable looking dress shoe - IT is not super pretty, but it is super wide. It is among the best looking ultra-wide shoes I've ever owned. It is reasonably comfortable... I think it could benefit from a little more cushion or contour.

    Buy them again in a heartbeat! My husband loves these shoes! He bought them to be waterproof in Scotland and while it didn't rain -- he only stepped in a mud puddle -- they were comfortable and all the mud and dirt wiped right off. Now, that we're back, he's wearing them for everyday.

    Very good shoe for a big man like me. I found that the Hush puppy shoe that I purchased was a very good purchase. The shoe is very comfortable and has a lot of support. I highly recommend this shoe for anyone that is looking for both style and comfort.

    Hush Puppy Comfort - My first pair of Hush Puppies was a nice surprise. Very comfortable and light on my feet. After wearing them all day they didn't get hot or "tight". They did feel larger than marked but I think it's due to the larger toe box.

    Super shoe - Best shoe I ever put on my feet. I am Chief Jailer in a detention center in NC. I’m on my feet most of the day, at the end of the day I fill like dancing. Love this shoe, will be ordering more in the new budget year.

    Flat Hush Puppies - Shoe seems too big for stated size, and has very little to no arch support. Comfortable on carpet or short outings, but without support can be painful on hard surfaces for any distance or extended time.

    Good work shoe. A tad sweaty. I own both the Hush Puppies Strategy and a similar looking Rockport Margin. They are the same price on Zappos. The Hush Puppies feels better on my feet, except that it is waterproof, making it not breathe much and make your feet feel a little hot. It has a flatter address than the Rockport, which for me means that my feet don't get as "tired" at the end of the day. But the Rockport has a more contoured bottom with a higher arch support. If you live in a warm climate or don't like waterproof dress shoes, I'd go with the Rockport, otherwise these are a very good set of work shoes.

    Brands I'd also recommend: Rockport Margin, or anything by Ecco.

    Great Shoes! I bought these shoes for work to be able to breeze through security at the airports that I frequent. I don't have to take them off, they are very comfortable and look very professional. I went on a business trip and wore them straight away. I did not get any blisters or sore spots on my feet. They are a dream.

    Extremely comfortable but with square toe - These Hush Puppies are even more comfortable than Rockports, Florsheim Comfortech, etc. The trade off is the square toe which, to me, looks trendy but silly.

    Brands I'd also recommend: Rockport, Florscheim Comfortech.
