I require a wide size shoe, Zappos provides name brands and categorizes by style and size. I have owned Bostonian shoes before and am familiar with their fit. I ordered the size I needed and they fit perfectly. The comfort of a slipper and the look of executive is a great match. This is an excellent shoe for dress and business casual!

I have been truely impressed with the service at Zappos. This is the second time I\'ve bought shoes from them and the experience was great. I found the shoes that fit which was no mean feat. On initially ordering the wrong size they responded immediately by shipping the correct shoes and exchanging the other. There was no hassle at all. I\'d recommend them to my best friend.

Sharp looking and comfortable. A great shoe for the price. Seemed to require minimal break-in. Highly recommended.

Fell apart within a week -
The shoe is super comfortable, but it fell apart within just a week or two of wearing it. It showed scuffs on the leather immediately, and the rubber sole then disintegrated. Completely not worth the money. It's a shame, because they were comfortable.

Nice looking shoe, fine for work, business casual or with a suit. Comfortable, with decent quality leather. Have worn them for 9 months straight at work, but it is time for new ones; the soles are just about to wear through (I weigh 170 lbs.). Soles are a bit thin.

Very comfortable. I have a high arch and these shoes work well, took a couple of days to break in but are now very comfy, nice roomy toe box as well.

There is a slight ridge that runs from one side of the insole to the other about where the arch is. I have somewhat flat feet, so this might not affect everyone. But for me, it was just enough to be annoying. Otherwise, the shoes were fine. I\'ll be sending these back and getting a second pair of Johnston & Murphy Dobson Caps instead.

Because I have bone spurs on the toes of my right foot that would irritate the nerves, I needed and extra wide shoe to keep my foot from being squeezed on the sides. Not only was I looking for a size 13 but also looking for a 4E width. Unless you are buying sneekers it is very difficult to find that kind good looking dress shoe locally. My Podiatrist recommended Zappos so I gave it a try. What I found was I received a great shoe (Bostonian Cushing)that I am very pleased with that seems to have helped eliminate the problem. Not only am I thankful to Zappo\'s for quickly providing the right shoe at the right time, I am also thankful to Bostonian for providing such a great shoe at a very economical price. The shoe is very dressy and comfortable. They can be worn comfortably all day.

Zappos did a great job with good selection and very fast delivery. The shoe was sized right, comfortable, good room in the toe box 13 EE. Disappointed in the shoe finish. The color is the tan, but it scuffs quickly. Poor quality finish. I have a similar pair of black Rockports, much nicer finish, better quality.

Great shoe. The size of shoe I generally wear is between a 14 and 15, with 15 winning the battle most of the time. The shoes took about 2 full days of walking in at work before they felt like they were broken in. Since then, the shoes have been great and after a month still look brand new. The shoe opening spreads easy to put on and tightens up quickly. Tried the Dockers Gordon at the same time. Was a smaller fit and seemed too narrow.

The shoe runs a bit long in the toes, but otherwise is just fine. The cushion that comes with the shoe does not provide very good support, but a shoe insert takes care of that. The width on these shoes is excellent (especially for those of us with wide feet that have trouble finding adequately broad shoes).

This shoe features a fine fit and plenty of support. However, it did feel a bit narrow around the toes (at 4XW).

Very good shoe -
The shoe is handsome and presentable for business casual or formal occasions. It is comfortable for any occasion. Although it doesn't claim to be waterproof, it so far has repelled moisture from walking in wet grass. The fit (8 4E) is essentially very good, although a bit wider than "true fit". That doesn't prevent it from being comfortable. I think that adding an insole will probable fine tune the fit. If it does, then I plan to buy another pair soon to be able to alternate between days. The service was excellent.

My second pair of Bostonian all-purpose shoes - work, casual, looks great. Most amazing is the comfortable fit from day one. And my first pair lasted for years.

Perfect for work -
We got these for my hubby to replace a pair that he had demolished. He works long hours on his feet and needed a comfortable shoe. When he initially tried these on, the area on the vamp where the leather bent was uncomfortable, but after walking in them, they are perfect. I wish they were a little more fashion forward, but we are just happy to find a comfortable, nice-looking shoe in a EEEE!

Poorly built -
I have owned a nice pair of black Bostonians for quite a while and I really like them. I bought this brown pair so that I could switch off between the two. Unfortunately, the Cushing seems to be a lower quality shoe than the Stradas that I own. The first pair I got was too small. I wore them at home for only a couple of hours before my feet started to hurt. So I returned them for a half size larger (great service by Zappos BTW!). Even with the larger size, the toe box is cramped and the left shoe has a different feel from the right. This is the only pair of shoes I have owned that feel this way. They look great, but the quality just isn't what I expect from Bostonian.

Great dress shoes for wide feet -
I wear an 11 EEEE and generally find it extremely difficult to find dress shoes that fit comfortably, especially for long periods of time. However, these Bostonians are *perfect*. They fit better and more comfortably than some of the NB athletic shoes I normally wear and they look great. They are every bit as wide as they claim to be, but they were maybe just a touch longer than most size 11 shoes I've worn. Not a big deal by any means, though. Very high quality materials as well. I will definitely buy more Bostonians in the future.

These shoes are for my son, who wears a size 16. We really liked the look, he said they are very comfortable and cushing in the sole. Price is great too! Thank you Zappos for great selection and free shipping both ways.

Better than expected - This shoe looks great. I have a wide foot and the shoe provides enough room for my toes. The heel feels particularly nice although the arch support is less than what I hoped for. Overall, a nice shoe. Good value.

Runs a size small/but a great shoe -
The Bostonian shoes must all run about a size small because this is the second pair that I have had to go down a size. I really like the shoe. It looks great and has been very easy to wear-in for a "dress shoe".

Best everyday shoe I've found -
These shoes feel great, I wear them 5 days straight for 14 hours each day for a whole year and always felt great. My only complaint is that they feel a little wide, so I always had to tighten the shoes extra hard, but overall very good quality shoe. If they keep making them, I’ll keep buying.

Good shoe for the money...
I bought this shoe for work. I work in an office, but I have to manage warehouse space and outdoor yards, so a rubber bottom was critical for me as leather just gets torn up too fast. Shoe fit these requirements well. I wear an 8.5 in wide shoes...but a 9 in most shoes since they run narrow typically. This one is a little wide and a little big...maybe I’d call it a 9.25 and single E width. Good for a wide foot person who finds an EE too wide. Not too wide or long though as it still fits...I just have a little bit more room. With a thicker sock it fits well...but not tight as I am used to with a standard size 9 width D shoe.
