Venture Knit Plain Toe Sneaker

Men's

The show size is fine, looks are what I expected but the shoes cause blisters on the back of the heel. Due to the elastic nature of the shoes they do not seem to be breaking in too quick. I like the shoes but cannot wear them for extended periods, will continue to try to get them to relax.

I am a 10&1/2 medium and the fit is 100% on the money. The shoes feel amazing and can easily be worn with nice shorts or even casual evening wear. Definitely would buy these again.

Too narrow and tight

Ok first off - the look of the shoes is very athletic/casual stylish but you can actually wear them to a business casual office setting, they go great with many different kinds of pants. They are essentially super comfy sneakers. The soles are removable which for me is a big thing, I tend to like 3rd party high arch insoles. The shoe material appears to be wool and breathes great, my feet never got too hot even on very warm days. I was so happy the first day I wore these because I walk a ton at work and with these stylish sneakers I never thought about my feet once. I prefer the fit, breathability, and walking comfort of these over my Allbirds. If I stopped here I would give these shoes 5 stars. But. . .I have owned these shoes for 21 days and worn them 3 times for a total of approximately 15 hours and the black coloring is coming off the front so fast! It makes the shoes look far far older and more worn than they are. So I am disappointed in the quality of the materials/construction that this could happen so easily and so quickly. Never once have I been rough with the shoes or done anything that would account for rubbing off the coloring at the toe. Photo attached, see for yourself. If that appearance doesn't bother you, try these out (and I expect it will worsen since they are still so new).

Originally I didn't like these much, they run just a bit small in size and I didn't think they were the most comfortable the first time I put them on but over time they do stretch but not too much and are very comfortable. I wear these almost daily for work. Either sitting in the office or out making calls and walking the street these are very comfortable once broken in. I've walked the streets once for 8 hours and feet felt great afterwards. I also like of lightweight these are. Bought and extra pair of blue and black since they look to be on clearance please bring these back!
