    Very comfortable shoes and there is no break in period. The soles are padded and it feels like walking on pillows.

    Amazing shoes. Have a black pair that I have been wearing a pair for 27 months, finally time to get a new pair. Still look great to this day, but the support is finally starting to wear out. Have had pair of Stricklin Moc Lace-Ups for the same amount of time, the Dobson blows it away from a comfort and look standpoint. Solid shoe.

    I've been wearing a pair of Dobson Cap Lace Ups every work day for the last 16 months. The are incredibly comfortable, durable and stylish. After 14 months of daily wear and tear, I damaged a heel by being a little too rough. But I took the shoes to a local cobbler and he put new heels on for just a few bucks. To this day with just a little polish and a quick shine they look great. The rubber parts on the sole have actually held up better than I thought they would. Overall, I am very happy with these shoes. I will definitely buy Johnston & Murphy again. Highly recommended.

    Nice pair of dress shoes! These are my 3rd pair of Johnston & Murphy shoes and the 2nd that I purchased from Zappos (I got the Shuler Bike from Zappos). The Dobsons are pretty comfortable for dress shoes, although not quite as comfy as the Shuler Bike, which are a bit more casual looking. Also, I noticed that the back of the Dobson shoes are slighter shorter than the Shulers, such that at first it felt like they would slip off my heels. That feeling went away after a few days of wearing them. Overall, I'm pleased with the purchase and would recommend them.

    These are great shoes. Modern, yet classic at the same time. And very comfortable to boot. I have slightly wide feet, but I still think these run a tad narrow. I tried on size 9 and 9 1/2 at Macy's, and both were too tight in the width. Size 10 fit, but they were too long. Macy's didn't carry the wide sizes, so I went online and found Zappos. I ordered 9W, and, fortunately, they fit just fine. The sheepskin insoles are very soft and comfortable. No break-in period involved. These are shoes you could be on your feet in all day. I bought a pair of the mahogany color (Zappos' pictures are a very good representation of the color) and like them so much I plan to get a second pair in black.

    Brands I'd also recommend: Sandro Moscoloni makes shoes that are soft as slippers, though slightly less formal.

    I was pleasantly surprised when I put these shoes on and they were comfortable right out of the box. I usually suffer through a break-in period with most dress shoes but not these. They look good and don\'t hurt my feet even when walking long distances.

    Best Dress Shoes ever - I've always had a terrible time finding dress shoes that fit my foot correctly. Not only do they fit correctly, they look great, too. I don't think I'll ever go to a different brand.

    Softest shoe I've ever had - Most dress shoes I've bought the past 20 years were the "Florsheim Royal Imperial" type - very good shoes, but hard leather uppers that were very tough to break in. Well to my surprise the Johnston & Murphy was soft as glove leather! No break in period AT ALL! These are the best shoes I've ever purchased. Comfort, feel, look - all are top notch! The shoes hug your feet like a fine Italian racing glove! I ordered the slip on first, didn't like the look, called customer service and they just switched out the slip on for the "lace up" without charging me again! I'm not just a satisfied customer - I am "CUSTOMER ECSTATIC!" The fit was perfect, delivery took one day from the time I re-ordered, and I'll be ordering the same one in black soon. Thanks to Zappos! The ONLY shoe store that I shop at and the best customer "ecstatic" service ever!

    An excellent shoe - The quality and craftsmanship of the shoe is excellent. Though it does fit a bit larger than I expected, it's incredibly comfortable. Stylistically, the shoe is great looking. Overall, a worthwhile purchase.

    Great all around shoe - I like the shoe a lot. It can dress up to fit with slacks or even a suit, but also dress down to fit with jeans. The leather is pretty soft, and I can see it will show wrinkling, which will end up part of the style, so to speak. Also, not nearly the arch support of the Aldrich II Trampoline shoes, but moderate and still very comfortable to walk in.

    Great everyday work shoes - Are these shoes going to set the world on fire with their style? Nope. Are they incredibly comfortable, well-made, and reasonably priced? Yep. I have no complaints. They seem to be very true to size, and they have an almost "pre-broken-in" feel. Some men's dress shoes can be really stiff and tough to break in; these were nice and soft and easy to walk around the office in right out of the box. No regrets and I'd definitely buy again.

    Comfy Dress Shoes - These are the most comfortable dress shoes I have ever owned. Truly as soft and supple as a sneaker yet a stylish dress shoe. I wanted to immediately buy another pair, but my size was sold out! I want to stock pile these things and never wear another shoe! If you can find a pair in your size BUY IT!

    Two thumbs up - This is an extremely comfortable, nice looking shoe. The only drawback is that the toe of the bottom of the shoe seems to scuff very easy. Would I still buy them again - definitely.

    Comfortable and flexible - The shoe was comfortable out of the box. Its look melds two different styles and is appropriate for suits, but could be worn more casually. My only complaint is about the laces; there are too few eyelets to lace, and in order to tighten the shoe snugly to my foot, I have to tighten the laces all the way. I'm concerned that some day as the leather stretches that I won't be able to tighten the shoe completely. Overall, they are very comfortable, and one could expect to spend several hours on their feet without any problems.

    Fabulous surprise - I adore these shoes, what a fabulous option. I purchased this pair with moderate to low suspicion that I would enjoy them. They turn out to be a fabulous shoe and I'm happy that I was wrong. Very supple leather and no break-in period required. I look forward to putting them as I'm taking them off.
