Nice Shoe -
Very nice shoe. Pretty comfy out of the box. I love the removable insoles. I can slide my new balance arch support tennis shoe insoles in and makes them even better.

Espresso love -
Very nice shoe. I bought it for work, financial planner, and it is fine for that. It has been comfortable; break-in is not finished yet though. I walk up and down Seattle's hills and haven't gotten a blister yet. Sizing seems right. I got a size 10 1/2 so I could fit in a Triad arch support. Next time I'll go with a 10 for a more snug fit, but I like the extra toe room. I should say that I'm usually a 10, but it varies.
Other shoes recommended by reviewer: I like Doc Martens.

Great looker, very good feel -
Just like I like my espresso, to go and instant satisfaction! great looking with suits and feels more then the value is set for the shoe, had it for about 4 months and so far so good. I've got flat feet and the M width actually works out good for me, 2 pods cushioning for shoe gives extra padding for back of the heel as well as ball of the foot which makes it a great 8-10 hour day shoe! Recommend for business casual wear offices.

Love these shoes -
They are like walking on air comfortable as compared to the last pair of shoes I was wearing. The 2Pod System is great - I might buy another pair in brown.

Shoe is light weight but of substantial build. So far sole is wearing like iron. Versatile styling and color.

Good, comfy shoes but...
I had these shoes for about 2 and half months and wore them constantly. They were comfortable and fit me well, but after the 2.5 months they leather and sole began to separate. I wasn't sure why mainly because I hadn't been using them in any "crazy" manner. I wasn't in a situation to be able to return them for a new pair so I had to stop using them. But up until that happened they were great shoes. Maybe I just got a bad pair.

My dad loves it -
I bought those for my aging dad because he always has trouble with shoes not fitting his feet properly, and he absolutely loves them straight out of the box. This is the first Bostonian he owns, since he lives in Florsheim, but I think he'll be adding a lot more pairs soon. He said they are not THAT dressy, since the sole is not leather, but dressy enough for the office on most days. And of course, Zappos service absolutely rocks!!! Where else can you order something on a Sunday afternoon and have it at the door on Monday? Love them!

Very comfortable -
Phenomenal comfort for all day wear. Less formal than full leather sole, but far better feeling and much safer on slick surfaces, and plenty dressy for a suit or business casual.

Espresso to go please!
These shoes are not only very stylish, but also extremely comfortable. The lacing is a bit long, but its nothing that pants can't cover over. If youre looking for a sturdy work shoe for business casual then go for these.

Great shoe for orthotics -
I recently needed to get a shoe that could accommodate an orthotic due to really bad bone spurs. These shoes fit the bill to a "T". They were comfy out of the box and fit the Ortho really well. I would highly recommend these to anyone in a similar situation. Only concern: Like many others - the laces are REALLY long and the color is very dark - they actually could pass as oxblood or a burgundy...

This shoe is incredibly comfortable. It looks nice and needed no breaking in.

Nice shoe. Just what I was looking for--dressier than casual loafers, but not TOO dressy. I wouldn't wear these with a suit, but they're perfect with dress pants otherwise. True to size, comfy.

More stylish & more comfortable than Rockports!
I've been wearing Rockports thinking they were the most comfortable men's dress shoe, but I was wrong. These are more stylish and more comfortable!

Great Shoe for Brown Needs -
I ordered the Espressos in brown and they are very versatile. You can dress them down or up, and they are certainly modern enough for going out to clubs and dinner. They needed no break-in time and were comfortable from the start. Not heavy at all and they have a nice cushioning effect. As noted in other reviews, the laces are probably too long. With the color of the leather, I'm unsure of how to polish them when they get scuffed. Perhaps clear shoe polish might work. If you get them for $95 or less, I'd highly recommend them. Over $100 and I'd hesitate to recommend them, as I haven't worn mine that long to see how they hold up. Maybe they'll last, maybe not. So far, they're great!

Great shoes...
I love the shoes. They look great and most importantly they're very comfortable to wear. There was no "breaking in" period. The shoe strings are a bit longer than normal but I like that.

True Comfort -
I have been buying Bostonian shoes for years, but this is the first time that I received an online shipment before trying them on first. I must say that these shoes are comfortable right out of the gate. I had no need to "break" these shoes in, which is a first for me as I wear size 11 EE.

Decent Dress Shoe -
Nice looking dress shoe. The arch support is not quite in the right location for my foot. Needs some breaking in to soften up the leather. Laces way too long.

Amazing -
Bostonian has never disappointed me with a pair of shoes. This is my second pair and I can easily see why I will buy my next pair from them. This shoe is lighter than most dress shoes which make it feel casual to the feet, but dressy to all onlookers.
