Nothing Beats Real Leather -
I spent a couple of years in the military spit-shining my shoes several times a week and even stripping the polish off to start over again at a base coat. You'd think I'd hate leather. I love it.
Good leather can be maintained and last a very very long time, thus justifying the outrageous price of a fine shoe. I was not impressed by these nappa things. It's like overpriced pergo, except not as durable; the material is far too delicate for traipsing through urban jungle.
Additionally, the appearance of the shoe (as well as the stuff in the catalog that came with it) is pretty mediocre. As well as lacking the high-gloss sheen in the photo, my pair somehow looked plainer - less molded. I tried them on with a pair of nice jeans and was completely uninspired. If the footwear industry is looking for a model overpriced mediocrity, you're looking at it.
To be fair, they were pretty comfortable for a slip-on.

Nice shoe for big feet -
I have only worn these a couple of times. The leather top is very soft so there is room to stretch if the shoes were too narrow. They are comfortable on my 17D feet.

I purchased the Rex and they are by far one of the best fitting, looking shoes out for the price. I tried several pair before deciding on this one it was perfect with slacks and jeans. The leather is extremely soft and I have narrow feet so I don't believe these particular shoes are for the larger feet however I could be wrong. Overall an excellent, excellent shoe, fit and style if there is a better one please email me !!

Favorite dress shoes -
They are simply gorgeous. I was shocked by how comfortable they are. The "breaking in" period is less than a day. Unfortunately, you need to be careful with them since they scuff easily and the top will warp if you don't use a tree.

Poor durability -
This is a nice looking shoe. It's just not an everyday shoe. It's leather is very soft, and therefore vulnerable to everything. The second time I wore these, my desk took a chuck of leather off of the right outside toe. Be very careful when wearing these. Not really worth the price.

The Rex is fantastic -
This is one of the most elegant dress shoes I have ever worn. The Nappa is buttery soft and has a natural sheen that can be polished to a shine. It will look great with a suit every day--conservative enough for certain professions but edgy enough to portray a modern styling. It represents a balance that I have not found elsewhere. The shoe is also extremely comfortable, fitted correctly.
Regarding my experience with Zappos, I cannot overemphasize my high regard for this firm. They were diligent in working with my requests and quickly fixed a sizing issue. I would rate them among the best online service providers that I have encountered.

One Spectacular Shoe -
The fit is superb, the shoe exquisitely manufactured, and the look is fantastic. I purchased the shoe to wear with my dinner jacket - I certainly didn't expect all the compliments. So, thank you very much.
