I used to burn out $125 wingtips every nine months until I discovered the The Florsheim Kenmoor (Imperial). Judging from their sturdiness I decided to make the investment in a higher priced, higher quality shoe and it's paid off! Between the two pairs I own, I wear them about four days a week. With normal maintenance and care, they last for years. I recently paid a small sum to a local shoe shop to resole a two year old pair and I expect them to carry me at least another year. With the sturdiness comes a very comfortable fit. I just bought a new pair and didn't experience the rough break-in soreness and blisters that accompanied the cheaper pair.
Thank you Zappos for carrying these shoes and for your prompt, professional service. I rank Zappos up there with LL Bean.

Love the Long Wing -
This is my fourth pair of the Florsheim Kenmoor Long Wing. My first pair was inherited from my father. I have two pairs of the cashmere calf black and the heritage calf wine which I bought through Zappos. These shoes wear like iron and yet are extremely comfortable.

Business Warrior -
Solid construction with thick sole. If you are on the run a lot or travel extensively, then this is your shoe. I normally burn through the soles of most wingtips in four months--wearing them every other workday. I have gone a year before having these re-soled. The strong sole does not contain metal--or at least does not set off airport magitometers--yet strong enough to give 14 hour a day support.

I purchased a pair of these exact shoes about five years ago. They have been resoled several times and always look great. I purchased another pair this week with the confidence that they will last another five years. The shoes were at my door less than 24 hours after my purchase. Thanks Zappos!

These shoes are by far the greatest shoes ever built. They have such an outstanding executive look that when one wears them he gives off a look of success. They are well built and sturdy and I will only wear kenmoor-wing tips. Truly a top of the line shoe.

Five years ago I found this same style shoe in black. I wanted a brown pair as well but could not afford another. A year or so later I looked for the shoe again and the dealer said they don't make this shoe anymore; I was disappointed. I was pleased to see Zappos had this shoe. This is absolutely the classic wingtip. It has powerful classic lines and looks like a man's shoe. The wingtips of today are sleek and soft and they come nowhere close to the Kenmoor.

Florsheim Kenmoor -
These shoes have spoiled me - I can't find anything as comfortable as the Kenmoor. The hardwood sole provides the best support imaginable. I regularly wear these shoes for 14 hours a day and my feet always feel great. I never knew a dress shoe could be this comfortable; quality through and through. They are pricey, but they are worth every penny.

Great Looking Shoe and Comfortable enough.
This is a great looking shoe. You can see the quality craftsmanship that went into it. The back of my ankles are red and blistered from walking in these shoes for the first few days. Otherwise the shoe is comfortable in general. You will be noticed with these shoes. They are showstoppers in every other way!

Still the same -
I purchsed the ancestor of the current shoe while in college. Price then was about $25.00. Am I dating myself?
This is in all respects a quality shoe; as I view it, an alternative to black, and as such it goes well with my greys as well as browns.
The finish is superb, the fit is precise. The feel is "stiffer" than most, at least in the early stages of wear.
Who knows, another hundred years from now I'll likely be purchasing its decendents.

High quality shoe. The only complaint is within a week the white started showing through shoe lace and has worsened.

I was a little concerned when I first got the shoes, because they were so stiff that I had trouble getting my feet into them. But once I had them on they fit great and they are loosening up enough that getting them on is easier now after about a week of wearing them for a couple hours each day. I am very pleased with the shoes and would recommend them to anyone, especially if you need a "solid" shoe.

Fancy black wing tips look great. It's been awhile since I got new shoes, so I am not used to extreme stiffness. A week in they are beautiful but not test comfortable

Absolutely gorgeous shoe, well made. But, very stiff and the top edges felt like they are cutting into my ankles, so had to return for credit.

.Shoes are great, but you need more options. i.e. size EE width's. With width's only in size D and EEE does not bode well for all. Two width sizes does not fit all. Otherwise shoes are excellent. Recty the situation as cited above and you have a continuing customer.Yes

I bought these because they were heavily discounted and perhaps being discontinued...and I was eager to add a pebbled black pair to my shelf. I'm normally an 'E' width but went with the 3E because that's all that was available in a size 13. They are roomy for sure but fit comfortably and I'm hoping they'll break in nicely. I have always loved the longwing.... I'm the lucky owner of many pairs...newer and vintage...many colors. Like many reviewers have stated: Florsheim! Make the longwing in shell cordovan leather in the States, like the old days!! Yes, we know they'll cost more. We will happily pay a fair price for US made shell cordovan gunboats made to the standards of the oldies!!

Two nail heads protruded a small amount above the surface of the heel. The nails should be recessed to prevent scratching a floor!

More of a milk chocolate brown than a cogniac, still an American classic even if made in India. Comfortable and classy.

Beautiful shoes. Just wish they were still made in the US. I would be willing to pay more for that. Thanks!
