I bought these boots not having tried them on before. I am soooo glad I did. My wife and I were heading to Chicago for a long weekend, so we ordered them and had them shipped to the address in Chicago. Needless to say, the boots arrived before we did (way to go Zappos). I have a pair of Keen shoes and I think these boots are actually more comfortable. They are, without a doubt, the most comfortable shoe I wear. They are every bit as comfortable as some athletic shoes that I wear. The weather was in the 30's in Chicago and my feet were never cold, they never hurt, and they are a lighter (in weight) boot than I anticipated. Since the trip, I've worn them every day and it's like 10:00pm before I realize I still have them on! It's good to know that there's still a company out there making a great product and a very reasonable price. I'm a Keen wearer for life now!

Great - I found this shoe not only stylish but very well made, as is usual of the Bostonian brand. They fit well and I will continue to buy this brand.

First time loafer ...I'm a believer! I have a wide width and never thought I could fit into a loafer. I was impressed that the Reno was offered in a Wide Width and it fit like a glove. Initially, there was a bit of stiffness as is the case with any quality shoe. Man, they look and feel great and go as easily with a suit as more casual business attire. Also, I love the fact that these do not have cheaper rubber soles...very well made. If you are looking for a traditional dress loafer ... buy this shoe!

Additional Brand Information

Tired of exposing your worn out socks to countless strangers? Frustrated with untying and retying your shoes while rushing to catch a plane? Or are you just plain sick of the amount of time it takes to get through security lines at most airports? Bostonian, a leader in stylish, comfortable men's shoes for over 100 years, has a welcome solution for you and millions of other frequent fliers.
Bostonian’s new Nonstop collection enables wearers to breeze through metal detectors thanks to the use of nylon heel shanks for stability. Traditionally, dress shoes makers use metal shanks. According to Glen Arentowicz, Bostonian Business Director, the nylon shanks offer equal levels of support and stability as the metal shanks, without the resulting travel headaches. “At Bostonian, we continually assess the benefits of using new materials to better address the needs of our consumers. The nylon shank in our Nonstop collection is the perfect example of how improved shoe technology can help us make shoes designed for the way men live today.”
Additional benefits of Bostonian’s Nonstop collection include fully waterproof construction, durability and instant comfort. Soft yet dressy full grain uppers stand up to the elements and leather covered poly-foam footbeds provide cushioning and breathability. Lastly, the polyurethane sole is both lightweight and durable. “Our consumers tend to be professional men living active, hectic lives, states Arentowicz. “With Nonstop by Bostonian, nothing will stop them, not the weather, not airport security, not the test of time.”

Impressed with the shoe but more impressed with Zappos - The shoe fits great, looks great and was exactly what I wanted, a good shoe at a good price. The overnight shipping that was included was fantastic and helped me out of a tight spot. I am very impressed with the service I received.

This shoe fit as I expected. I am hard on soles so the rubber portion of the front sole seems is nice. This shoe gives me the look and feel of a much more expensive shoe with added durability.

Bostonian Review - These shoes are larger than marked. The toe is squarer than shown in the photo.

Reviewer: Justin from Dallas

Usually Easy to Please - I bought my shoes six months ago to wear only occasionally to church and work meetings. The rubber on the bottom wore down excessively and began to peel off from the leather sole. I am not hard on my shoes as I sit most of the day and have never had this sort of problem before. Maybe Bostonian's assemblers were having a bad day the day mine were made. I was disappointed with the quality and integrity of the product. But they did fit good. Also, my shoes seem to look better in the pictures than they do on my feet. Not sure why.

He loves them! My husband has owned MANY different brands and styles of shoes for business but usually prefers Bostonian. But of all them, the Reno is the first one that has been a perfect fit from the get-go. It is a very stylish looking shoe with its high polish. He can't stop commenting on how comfortable they are and asked me to order 2 more pairs; one in the same colour that he wears most and will keep it for more formal attire and one in the othe colour. Size was perfect based on the size of all the other Bostonians he wears.
