Zengara Z30006 SKU #7255873(View on Zappos.com Classic)

Nice Style - I bought these shoes because the price was low and they looked nice. Right now they are uncomfortable and need to broken in. The rub around the ankles. Note: these shoes are very shiny.

If you are looking for a stylish dark brown shoe, this is your shoe. It is comfortable, easy to wear, and doesn’t have that smell that most people were complaining about. It smells of leather to me. My normal foot size is a 13/14. Most shoes have to be a 14 and most sneakers and casual shoes must be a 13. However, I could have used these in a 13. I have a lot of room in the front of the shoe. If it wasn’t needed in couple of days I would exchange for the next size down. Also, I received these shoes in less than 24 hours! Zappos is great and will definitely order from them again.

Good Shoe, Great Price. Excellent look. I have not experienced the "shedding" that others have. The leather is stiff but not any worse than other dress shoes. YES they do smell like gasoline. I found that if I left them outside for a day the smell decreased quickly. Great color. Great Fit. Better quality than I had expected. An excellent value. Also ZAPPOS is awesome!

Not quite what I was expecting when I received them. They felt somewhat cheap and they smelled horrible (very strong chemical smell), but I guess you get what you pay for. I rather pay twice as much for a nice pair of shoes.

Italian whatever. I was excited to try these shoes, finally an affordable Italian shoe that looks cool and stylish, not precocious and preening. I was also excited because Zengara makes shoes in my size (16)! When I received the shoes, I was let down. The soles, although they look nice, are very slippery. My mother (whose opinion I value sometimes...) commented that they looked a bit goofy. The leather isn't high quality that I can tell. In a previous review, a lady said that the ankle gave her husband blisters. I can see that happening since the leather isn't supple and the heel is quite sharp. Included with these other faults, this company’s sizing is all off; the shoes are at least half a size larger than marked. I wish I could endorse Zengara for their efforts, but I can't.

A birthday gift for my brother - As usual they arrived quickly. They came in the mail so quickly that it was a day before my brother’s birthday. He loved them so much that he thought I paid an arm and a leg for them. That's how well they are hand crafted. He wore them to church and informed me that because of the way the toe is cut, they are a really comfortable wear. All around he gives them five stars.

JG - Excellent shoe looks great in jeans and slacks. A little smelly but nothing a little bit of foot powder wont relieve.

AWESOME SHOE! I was having the hardest time locating a shoe that I thought I would like. Given that I'm not a big mall person and really like to get in and get out, Zappos has proven again to be a convenient alternative. This shoes is very, very nice. I wore it out to get a feel for them for a few hours and they were extremely comfortable. My feet felt great in them. Definitely a good buy!!!!

Great Shoe - Love my shoes....the price was great too!
