Great look. Lousy Feel -
The shoe looks magnificent, but the fit and feel was atrocious. Stiff and wooden in feel, it was not a comfortable fit at all. Be cautious walking on anything but carpet as the hard sole nearly cost me to take a spill on the lobby floor. The concrete walk from my driveway was another adventure in keeping my balance as the shoe seems to hold no grip. If you wish to sit in a chair and appear to have a wonderful shoe by all means get this one - but keep a pair of decent shoes to actually walk in. I would not recommend this shoe.

Nice traditional shoe -
If you want a handsome thick sole wingtip traditional look, here it is. This shoe is for the professional, i.e. sales, law, accounting etc.

Kenmoor -
A very good shoe. I've been impressed with the quality of materials and workmanship. I've owned cheap Florsheims before and they are not even in the same league as the Kenmoor. They are very comfortable. My only concern is the edge of the sockliner. It's been curling up a bit when I remove the shoes. We'll see if this presents a problem down the line.

Give yourself a jolt of confidence!
These shoes are awesomely built! I bought a tan and black version to rotate during the week. I have a tendency to wear the outer sides of my heels fast and these shoes slow that process down a little due to a combination leather/rubber heal. The leather heel makes you sound as if you have concrete blocks attached to your feet when you walk, though! I bought the pebbled finish for a different look. I thought I would never see the day I paid this much for a pair of shoes, but I have found out you get what you pay for. When I sit next to someone and look at their shoes, everyone's shoes pale in comparison to mine for build quality and appearance. This is a classic style that will never go out or get old.

Classic Quality Shoes.
No question about the quality of these shoes. Like a previous reviewer, I found these run about a 1/2 size larger. I ordered a size 12 and had to return them for an 11.5.
I was glad I ordered the extra wide as they seem to run a little narrow as well.
In this day of shoes that are comfortable out of the box, they still require the old fashioned break-in period. I have been wearing evenings the last couple of weeks and wore them to church for an hour last Sunday. I was glad to take them off after an hour, but know they will eventually break themselves in.
Again, there is no question that those purchasing these shoes will feel "well heeled".

Excellent shoe!
I'd been looking locally for a good-looking pair of traditional wingtip dress shoes for quite some time with little success. Needless to say, I was elated when I found just what I was looking for featured on the Zappos website. This shoe has exceptional styling, craftsmanship and comfort. I cannot say enough positive things about this shoe...thank you, Zappos!

My Dad's style shoes -
I always purchased the modern style type of this shoe from the department store, but when I learned this type of shoe could be purchased online from Zappos, I ran to the computer to purchase. I feel as strong and confident as my Dad when he walked tall and strong in these. I'll definitely purchase again knowing I'm getting quality. Thanks!

KENMOOR -
I have the Bostonian alternative and found it to be significantly less well-made than this shoe...very good quality shoe...I found it comfortable right out of the box...yes, it is stiff at first but has excellent arch support...worth the hundred bucks over the Bostonian.

Florsheims Kenmoor -Long Wing shoe review -
I was looking for a "traditional" pair of wingtip shoes and was not having much success in the stores. The quality I found was poor. My previous choice of this type of shoe, from a major shoe store chain, has reduced the quality of the shoe recently and I was not satisfied with the appearance or construction. In searching for an alternative, I tried Zappos because I had favorable experiences in the past with purchases from them. From the extensive variety of shoes provided, I located the Florsheims “Kenmoor” wingtip shoe. It seemed to be exactly what I was looking for: Excellent quality; solid construction and a high quality appearance.
Previous reviewers of this shoe have indicated a somewhat difficult break-in period for this shoe since it is quite stiff coming out of the box. While it is true that the shoes were "stiff" at first, I found that they broke in to a comfortable wear by the 3rd day and now feel very comfortable and natural. My normal shoe size has been 11 wide. Since some reviewer's of this shoe have indicated that the shoe seemed smaller than normal I took the chance and ordered an 11-1/2 wide. I am glad I did because this shoe fits very well. So, if your regular shoe size is comfortable, perhaps you may want to consider a half size larger for this one.
Overall, I am extremely pleased with the shoes. They fit very well, look great, hold a very nice shine and are good, solid and an excellent pair of dressy wingtips. I am glad I bought them and recommend them highly. As to my ratings I give them a "4 star" rating on comfort only because they are a bit stiff out of the box and require a very reasonable break in period. Some buyer's may not like this because a lot of shoes are made today with materials that require no real break in. As a result, some people may not like the idea that they have to break in a shoe before it is really comfortable. The trade off however is that once you wear them for a while I have noticed that shoes that require no break in tend to get shabby looking very quickly. You don't get this with these Florsheim shoes. So, I gave it a 4 star rating to indicate that some break in is needed.
As to Zappos, this is about the third order I have placed with them. Everything about the process was easy and pleasant. They process the orders extremely fast and efficiently and tracking and processing is great. I am very pleased with purchasing from them and would do so again without hesitation.

Classic Shoe -
This is a classic; fit might be a tad bit longer than in other models. Break in time is longer than normal but this is a product that will last and they are always in style. I would recommend this shoe to anyone. Zappos service is always top notch.

This is a classy shoe with very solid construction. It definitely needs break-in, but after that it will become one of your favorites and will always bring compliments.

The one year review -
After wearing these shoes for a year I felt compelled to write a second review. Florsheim's Kenmoor - Long Wing is made with a rear level of craftsmanship. Once broken in (it took me a dozen wearings) the shoe offers all day walking comfort that exceeds the comfort of my New Balance MR1223. PS. I'm a bit duck footed and these shoes have a generous toe box.

I have worn this style for years. They are stiff at first and take a while to break in, but after that are very comfortable and really last. The leather soles tend to be slick and I prefer to have a rubber sole cover added at the shoe shop because I am often in buildings with slick marble or tile floors.

Solid classic black dress shoe for men -
This shoe seems very durable and well made, although I've only been wearing it for three weeks. It is a bit heavier than most dress shoes I've purchased. It has a very solid feel, and I like the leather sole.
They are very comfortable after their break-in period, which other reviewers have noted.
My only complaint is that the inner heel lining seems to be peeling back a bit. Not sure if that's a flaw, but the use of a cedar shoe tree seems to help it a little.
You can definitely hear these shoes coming, though -- not a good shoe for muggers or thieves.

It’s a very substantial shoe of high quality construction, though not entirely comfortable until after an initial break in period. I've worn out numerous pairs of this classic shoe, but it takes a long time to do so.

Not quite sure, yet...
I ordered the Carleton and it was a bit stiff at first, but once broken-in it’s super comfortable...SO, I upgraded to the Kenmoor in black and brown. They are very stiff and still breaking in. Also, the right shoe is very uncomfortable in the heel. The heel is higher than the left. I should have returned them, but I wore them and now I have to put some padding in the heel.

High Quality Wingtip -
Received these shoes the a few days ago and could not be happier. I have searched hard for a pair of quality brown wingtips with little success. I wear a 7.5, so it is hard to find the correct size in a retail store. Zappos is fantastic for this reason; they almost always have the size I need. The Kenmore felt about a half size too big, thus requiring a size 7; however Zappos made the exchange very easy once again. The shoes themselves are of a high quality - nice stitching, good leather and solid soles. These shoes need significant “break-in time”, because they are very stiff at first; however that is the mark of a good shoe.

The 5 star shoe of choice -
I had been looking for this type of shoe for several months with no luck at the retail stores, one evening our daughter Tammy had come to visit us while I was surfing the Florsheim web page looking for a well constructed wing tip shoe with no luck, Tammy told me to try the Zappo.com web site on which she immediately located the ideal shoe so I purchased a pair in black, I am more than pleased with the ease of the purchase and quality of the shoes. I guess I can now be considered a happy camper with an excellent pair of Florsheims Kenmoor-Long Wing shoes. I do recommend Florsheim to again install the formed heel pad in the shoes.

For a Classic, Stylish, Yet Conservative Look -
Works wonderfully with that charcoal gray, black, or navy suit, and possibly even with a tux. Suitable for all business functions and interviewing. Probably a bit too dressy for everyday wear, however. Cheaper than Allen Edmonds MacNeil and just as good, if not better. Can't go wrong with this shoe!

Great Value -
A great shoe right off the bat, once you scuff up the sole for traction and wear it for a few days to increase the flexibility. The sole is extremely slippery and requires some pavement time before you stop slipping on tiles and carpet.
The build of the shoe is very stiff to start off with but as you wear it in over a couple of days this will recede. The end result (after 3 weeks) is a very solid shoe wearing shoe that has a professional appearance with any suit and will probably last many years if you take care of it properly (use cedar shoe trees and don't wear it every day). Buy 2 or more pairs to swap out and you won't be disappointed.

Too late!
This is my 4th pair of shoes from Zappos. Unfortunately, this pair, which I have in Brown also was delivered and I immediately wore them on a business trip. I did not realize that the this pair was an 11.5B until I started to really feel the tightness on the top of my left foot. I did not specify 11.5B; just the 11.5 regular. It’s too late for a return / exchange as I had wore them for a day trip. I guess your company was just trying to dump the last pair with the unusual fit. Thanks to me for being the loyal customer.

A really good shoe, except the left one pinches my foot unless I lace it loosely. Hopefully, it will stretch a little with wear.

 |  | If you don't mind, I will share a quick story with you... my father-n-law wanted me to order a pair of boots for his girlfriend thru another website. I did what he asked, even though I told him I'd rather go thru Zappos.com and save him some money! Long story short, the other website was unable to complete my order in the time that I needed it due to a backorder on the same pair of boots that I got from ya'll immediately! Needless to say, I emailed the other company and told them to cancel my order all together and I Will Not be ordering from them again. I also made it a point to tell them that I have a reliable website that gets me the product that I need, On Time! Again I thank you very much and hope to bring you plenty more orders in the near future! Respectfully, Sarah G. |  | ~ Sarah G., May 07 2008
