Best Comfort Shoe Ever -
Total flexibility and padded comfort. Stylish, yet can be worn for extended periods.

Exactly what I wanted -
Bought these in a store originally, I have since bought online since I am confident in the fit. I don't use them with a suit, but will with sport jacket and tie. I like the light feel and comfort like a soft leather glove. Since I was looking for something easy to put on and off, stylishly simple, and comfortable, they are perfect!

Tan is really brown -
Although the naming might be consistent with other shoes, it should be noted that the "tan" version is roughly what I think most people would call brown or light brown rather than tan.

I've tried all shoes of this style under $100 at Zappos. I found this to be the best, just barely edging out the Florsheim Riva with it's slightly (very slightly) more flexible sole.

Great shoes -
I ordered these shoes for my Dad, who has a narrow foot but loves slip-ons. These fit him so well and were very comfortable right out of the box. He won't wear any other shoes now. They are also deep enough that his heel does not slip out when he walks. Thanks!

Very comfortable dress shoe -
Many men's dress shoes can be uncomfortable or make a lot of noise when you walk on a hard floor. This shoe didn't need any "breaking in" and wore well and comfortable from the first time I put them on. It looks good and can been worn with a suit, but is very comfortable for a dress shoe. This is good for me because I have to look formal most of the day and like to walk a lot.

Right fit, lightly constructed -
Comfortable immediately, well-detailed, conservatively stylish, light-duty construction--or so they seem.

Bostonian Prescott -
A very comfortable shoe. Exceptionally prompt delivery. Described as tan but I think it is brown (which I preferred anyway). The finish is rather too shiny, looks a bit cheap.
Curiously, except for the finish, this shoe seems identical to a Florsheim model formerly carried by Penny's. Macy's has only black in Prescott. I was very pleased to find other colors online.

Comfortable, good looking shoe -
This is a great looking, *really* comfortable shoe! I rated it only 4 for looks because it isn't quite as nice as my $400 Salvatore Ferragamo shoes, but for the price they are great.
The soles are some sort of synthetic, so they may not be quite as nice looking as some, but they make up for it with their comfort. These shoes practically feel like slippers, and the soles are very flexible, so they resist having the heel of your foot move too much when you walk.

Good looking and comfortable shoe. But it makes noise when you walk in them. I'm about 210 lbs., maybe I'm too heavy for these.

These shoes are so comfortable! They feel like house slippers, yet you can walk a lot in them. They are quiet and they fit like a glove. Size was right on.

Total Satisfaction -
This is the most comfortable shoe that I have ever bought. I am hard to fit. A 13 1/2 would be perfect, but there is no such thing. I thought I would give the Bostonian 14 a try and it was perfect. It must be cut slightly smaller that stated, but it is perfect for me. I am happy with my choice and happy with the speed of Zappos' service. I couldn't believe the speed at which they arrived at my front door. I will be back when the black is in stock.

Exact what my husband wanted -
I purchased these shoes for my husband as a birthday gift and he was so pleased. They are comfortable, less expensive than the Florsheim he was wearing yet they look the same. He is a believer of Zappos. Zappos service was outstanding they got my order to me in less than 48 hours even though it was a holiday.

Writings from a "Big Foot"-
I have never experienced a shoe like this Bostonian marvel until now! The shoe is good-looking & comfortable for a 16-D...Well worth the extra money I had been paying for another brand.

Bostonian Prescott -
This is the 3rd pair within last several years that I purchased for my husband. I tried to give him other alternatives, just for variety, but he feels that this model is the most comfortable for his long work hours. He was so happy that I got them again. I used to buy them at a department store but recently couldn't find them, so I bought here at Zappos. Zappos are absolute shipping champions! Prices are actually comparable now too. I was pretty pleased overall.

Bostonian Prescott -
Having smaller than normal-sized feet, it was a great joy to find the Zappos.com website and the many varieties of dress shoes. I purchased the brown Bostonian Prescott shoes for work and I'm glad I did. I read people's comments regarding the noise. They do indeed make noise if you walk on wood or any hard-surfaced floor. I work in an office environment with carpeted (berber-like) floors and these shoes make no noise at all. If you're concerned about the noise, keep this in mind. If you're not, then these shoes will work for you. The appearance is great and the comfort is great as well. I highly recommend these shoes!

I ordered these shoes for my husband, who has a very hard time finding shoes in the right size. He tells me that these shoes are very comfortable!
I would like to say "thank you" to Zappos.com for making buying shoes in his size a whole lot easier than it used to be. They e-mailed me when they had his size in stock, upgraded my free shipping to priority, and we had the shoes in just a couple of days! Amazing service!

A great comfort shoe -
I am diabetic and since being diagnosed, I have great problems with my feet. I cannot slide into shoes easily... and everything hurts. These shoes are the first that I found that are completely comfortable. My only complaint is the quality appearance. I am not sure how long the appearance will last, but the comfort is worth the expense of the appearance.

Great shoe -
I buy shoes for my husband who hates to shop, so he's hard to fit. These shoes were absolutely perfect. He loves them. They are comfortable and look very good. I'll be buying them again.
