These shoes are by far the most comfortable dress loafers I have ever had. I have flat feet and bunions and these shoes do not aggravate those conditions and are still the most comfortable shoes I have ever worn.

These shoes are so comfortable! They feel like house slippers, yet you can walk a lot in them. They are quiet and they fit like a glove. Size was right on.

Total Satisfaction -
This is the most comfortable shoe that I have ever bought. I am hard to fit. A 13 1/2 would be perfect, but there is no such thing. I thought I would give the Bostonian 14 a try and it was perfect. It must be cut slightly smaller that stated, but it is perfect for me. I am happy with my choice and happy with the speed of Zappos' service. I couldn't believe the speed at which they arrived at my front door. I will be back when the black is in stock.

Exact what my husband wanted -
I purchased these shoes for my husband as a birthday gift and he was so pleased. They are comfortable, less expensive than the Florsheim he was wearing yet they look the same. He is a believer of Zappos. Zappos service was outstanding they got my order to me in less than 48 hours even though it was a holiday.

Writings from a "Big Foot"-
I have never experienced a shoe like this Bostonian marvel until now! The shoe is good-looking & comfortable for a 16-D...Well worth the extra money I had been paying for another brand.

This is the 3rd pair within last several years that I purchased for my husband. I tried to give him other alternatives, just for variety, but he feels that this model is the most comfortable for his long work hours. He was so happy that I got them again. I used to buy them at a department store but recently couldn't find them, so I bought here at Zappos. Zappos are absolute shipping champions! Prices are actually comparable now too. I was pretty pleased overall.

Having smaller than normal-sized feet, it was a great joy to find the Zappos.com website and the many varieties of dress shoes. I purchased the brown Bostonian Prescott shoes for work and I'm glad I did. I read people's comments regarding the noise. They do indeed make noise if you walk on wood or any hard-surfaced floor. I work in an office environment with carpeted (berber-like) floors and these shoes make no noise at all. If you're concerned about the noise, keep this in mind. If you're not, then these shoes will work for you. The appearance is great and the comfort is great as well. I highly recommend these shoes!

I ordered these shoes for my husband, who has a very hard time finding shoes in the right size. He tells me that these shoes are very comfortable!
I would like to say "thank you" to Zappos.com for making buying shoes in his size a whole lot easier than it used to be. They e-mailed me when they had his size in stock, upgraded my free shipping to priority, and we had the shoes in just a couple of days! Amazing service!

A great comfort shoe -
I am diabetic and since being diagnosed, I have great problems with my feet. I cannot slide into shoes easily... and everything hurts. These shoes are the first that I found that are completely comfortable. My only complaint is the quality appearance. I am not sure how long the appearance will last, but the comfort is worth the expense of the appearance.

Nice bang for the buck. I'm a younger man and these look like something my grandfather would wear, but I still enjoy wearing them to the office. Very comfortable as well.

Comfortable but noisy -
My feet are wide and I have a very hard time finding slip-ons that fit. This shoe fits well and looks good. My only complaint is the sole is rubber and squeaks.

Exactly what I wanted -
Bought these in a store originally, I have since bought online since I am confident in the fit. I don't use them with a suit, but will with sport jacket and tie. I like the light feel and comfort like a soft leather glove. Since I was looking for something easy to put on and off, stylishly simple, and comfortable, they are perfect!

Decent Shoe for Price -
I think that this shoe is as described, it definitely fit well. I was glad with that, however, the shoe looked a little worn and definitely will gain creases quite easily.
It doesn't look AS classy as the pictures make it out to be here and definitely lose a lot of the shine or look you'd expect from it.
Overall, it was a good buy for the price, just not as dressed up as I thought it'd be.

Tan is really brown -
Although the naming might be consistent with other shoes, it should be noted that the "tan" version is roughly what I think most people would call brown or light brown rather than tan.

I've tried all shoes of this style under $100 at Zappos. I found this to be the best, just barely edging out the Florsheim Riva with it's slightly (very slightly) more flexible sole.

Great shoes -
I ordered these shoes for my Dad, who has a narrow foot but loves slip-ons. These fit him so well and were very comfortable right out of the box. He won't wear any other shoes now. They are also deep enough that his heel does not slip out when he walks. Thanks!

Very comfortable dress shoe -
Many men's dress shoes can be uncomfortable or make a lot of noise when you walk on a hard floor. This shoe didn't need any "breaking in" and wore well and comfortable from the first time I put them on. It looks good and can been worn with a suit, but is very comfortable for a dress shoe. This is good for me because I have to look formal most of the day and like to walk a lot.

I feel bad to write a negative review of a shoe on Zappos’ website, as Zappos is great, but I hate these shoes and I feel that people should have my input in order to avoid a potentially bad purchase (and save you and Zappos the hassle of doing a return). It is in no way Zappos’ fault that these shoes are terrible.
While I think Bostonian generally offers a decent product for the money, this is the worst Bostonian shoe I have ever had.
The cheap leather was covered with a plasticy material to make it look shiny (I removed this with rubbing alcohol and then polished normally - then they looked a little better).
The worst part about the shoe is the sole. It feels and looks like a cheap, soft plastic and the shoes seem like a toy. However, while I hate this, I can see why people (like teenagers, perhaps) who can't stand wearing non-athletic shoes might prefer this, as the shoes seemed soft and comfortable.
I wore these once, but wish I didn't so that I could return them.

Cheap Shoe and Look's Like It!
Overall you get what you pay for and this shoe isn't worth it. The shoe is very comfortable, in fact too comfortable; it feels like you’re wearing slippers. The shoe isn't durable at all and the sole is made from a type plastic that cheapens the whole shoe.

Right fit, lightly constructed -
Comfortable immediately, well-detailed, conservatively stylish, light-duty construction--or so they seem.

 |  | I ordered these shoes on the 23rd, and here they were on our doorstep by Mon. the 26th! I love the shoes, and ZAPPOS IS INCREDIBLE. I really appreciate dealing with you guys – you are the best. I am 78 and do not particularly like to go to the Mall – but I can go to Zappos Mall and I like it there. Thanks again. |  | ~ Joann K., October 26 2009
