Johnston & Murphy's Melton - Size 10.5 D. Shoe felt slightly narrow. May break in. Don't know yet. Had same problem with an old pair of US made Bostonian dress shoes. They eventually broke in. J&Ms had good workmanship and the black leather shines up very nicely with KIWI parade polish.
Brands I'd also recommend: Sebago shoes fit me perfectly but I don't think they make dress shoes.

Excellent - Excellent shoe for the money. It has a stronger, smoother appearance than many cap-toed shoes that cost 25 - 50 percent more.

The tongue of this shoe is attached to one side of the eyelet (quarters or sides of the upper)portion of the shoe. This prevents the tongue from buckling and slipping during lacing of the shoe. The leather texure is consistent in color and texture;smooth like patent leather but not as shiney. The comfort of the sole is better than I expected and I have several pairs of shoes I purchased years ago at Johnston Murphy. The outward appearance of the leather sole looks similar to other shoes I own however, the padding and construction of the outer-sole and heel counter must include additional cushioning without any outward appearance of bulk. Good bang for the buck. I purchased the shoe in the dark burgundy.

Length - Excellent shoe for the money. Have owned many pairs, although seems to be an issue with consistency in the length of the shoe.

Great Shoe - Finally a site where I can find quality shoes that fit! The Melton is a great looking, well made, comfortable dress shoe. It was slightly narrow for width ordered, but with a little stretching it fits perfectly.

Quite Excellent - The shoe felt really nice and looks great. I wish I could send another review 6 months after wear to let everyone know the extent of wear on the materials. So, far I am very pleased. I wanted black also but they ran out when I ordered.

Solid Shoe - Well-made, good fitting shoe with excellent arch support, but the leather is a little stiff and it doesn't hold a shine as well as other high-end shoes I've purchased.

LOCK- I like this particular shoe. This is my second pair. I have a brown and black pair. They feel really good on my feet and most shoes don't. If the price is right, I will continue to buy and wear this shoe.

Basic but beautiful- This shoe belongs in every man's wardrobe; it's the perfect balance of form and function, for an amazing price. This is definitely one of the best deals on this website. What's better is Zappos itself. Unlike some companies, Zappos really does strive to deliver the best customer service possible. I challenge you to find a company that is more customer-oriented.

Nice shoe - I was pleased with the shoes; they are classy and look good. A nice fit, but a little narrow, but not enough to need to exchange them to get a wider width. They are also a little stiff, but I feel certain they'll break in nicely.

Nice shoe! I was looking for a dress shoe that I could wear to black tie events in NYC and DC. This is the shoe! Very nice styling. The shoe, however, is very stiff and it took me longer to break in than any shoe I have had in a long time. But after the first event, it wore just fine. Great value for the quality of the shoe.

Surprised! This was my first mail order for shoes, and the first time for this brand of shoe. I was very pleased with the quality and appearance of the shoe. The price was quite reasonable for the quality and the fit was excellent. I have a very narrow foot and cannot easily find good shoes (or any other kind) that really fit.
Brands I'd also recommend: Don't know yet.

Comfort without sacrificing looks. Handsome, classic style. Offers much better comfort and support than a pair of Bruno Magli's I recently retired.

Superb! I have wide feet and these are the MOST comfortable shoes I own. Plus, they look great! I was worried because they were a little stiff at the beginning, but broke in very well. I like the high shine too; I intend to buy another pair!

2nd pair - My husband loved the first pair so much he asked for another pair that he can just keep for 'special' occasions. We also got the brown ones. At size 15 he doesn't find shoes that he likes!

Excellent shoe, overall - These shoes are well made and look great. They feel true to size. This is the second pair I have had. With care, they last years. My first pair lasted about 3 years with resoling. They were used almost daily.
