Bostonian Danvers - The Danver is a good looking shoe that should probably be worn for occasions that would be considered a bit more formal. I found the shoe to be uncomfortable - even though I have worn around the office for several weeks. It appears to be cut smaller than other Bostonians I have purchased in the past.

Outstanding Dress Shoe - I am now looking to replace my first pair that I purchased about six years ago. I was drawn to the high gloss shine. They really look nice and I have received so many compliments. Over that period, I have shined them twice with great results. They still look great, but the sole has worn out. Another thing this shoe boasts is a great sound when walking. It sounds like a quality dress shoe. I would recommend them for anyone in a professional workplace or to wear when you want to dress better than most.

Sole separated rather quickly with little wear - I like the look of these shoes and the fit and feel has been pretty good, but the leather sole separated on me rather quickly which is very disappointing. I have been wearing the shoes less than 6 months and only occasionally during that time frame (maybe 2 times a week). The soles should not separate with this little wear!

A quality shoe... This shoe is well-made, very comfortable, looks great, and is value-priced. Don't hesitate to order the wide width (if needed). I did, and they fit great!

Satisfied - I ordered these to replace same shoe I had finally worn out after two years. Change in sole from last pair changed look slightly. Size remains true - stretched and comfy in a day's time. Service was fantastic - received in less than 24 hours - not sure how they do that, but Zappos rocks!

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.”

No-shine shoes - I really like these shoes, but shouldn't they be advertised as no-shine shoes? It seems that this would be their main selling point. I have owned a couple of pairs and find them very easy to care for and keep looking good. I tried shining them once and that didn't add much. I wish this site listed other "no-shine" shoes so I could easily select more in other styles if they exist. I would appreciate Bostonian responding to my email address and telling me which other Bostonian shoes have a similar "no-shine" material. Thank you for your great product.

Shoes - The shoes are very attractive, but they fit to snug. My husband usually wears a 9 1/2 D, which I ordered. The shoe seems to run small.

Great shoe at a good price. First pair of Bostonian's I've purchased. Shoes are all I expected them to be. Well-made, attractive and comfortable. Can be worn casually or with suit. Shoes appear to be true to size. Needed slight break-in period for max. comfort, but not too bad. The sides are cut a bit higher than other shoes I own, but not to the degree it's a comfort issue.
