I purchased these shoes for my fiance as dress shoes, the shoes look great and are a very nice shade of brown. My fiance likes them because they are so light weight and comfortable, they are better than his black Cole Haan shoes so we may be getting them in black too. Excellent purchase!

So far so good. Had them over a month now and they are very light weight. I do get a tiny pinch on the small toe - but they are stretching out now. They polish well and look great. Hopefully the sole holds up as well. I'd buy them again if I needed them.

Fit absolutely beautifully and super-comfortable. I'm a size 12 off the rack, and this was perfect. I hated to return it. But ultimately, it didn't seem quite dressy enough for a nice black suit. And for me - a little too dressy for jeans.

This was my first foray into online shopping for shoes. I wear a wide and can rarely find something in the stores. With Zappos.com I was able to find what I needed in a matter of minutes and couldn't be happier with the product. I've since used Zappos to buy another pair of shoes and a messenger bag. All orders were delivered on time. I will definitely be using Zappos again.

Super light and comfortable shoes, ordered for my fiancé and he really has liked them so far. We ordered 1/2 size too small initially not knowing what the correct size would be. Zappos makes it so easy to exchange shoes and have wonderful customer service. Can't say enough great things about Zappos!

I have used these shoes for worldwide business travel and have found them to be very comfortable and resilient. While not the most stylish, their other qualities more than make up for it.

This is my favorite work shoe, great for travel with slip on... very light and comfortable. The only downside is the longevity. I buy a black and brown pair once every year... after 1 year of continuous wear for work, these shoes are done.. the sole becomes very slippery with tread gone and worn smooth.. When I start slipping to much, that is my warning to chuck the old pairs in the trash and buy a new pairs.. That said, I have never had issues with stitching or sole separation. The only issue is with the treads becoming worn away and very slippery on wet surfaces after 1 year.

This was an excellent experience for me. The website was easy to use, the selection good, service quick and accurate and I love the shoes. Lightweight, comfortable and fashionable. They fit just as advertised and have been comfortable since the first time I put them on.

I'm a big Bostonian fan and these shoes did not let me down. They are very light, comfortable, and attractive. I have no hesitation in wearing them to meetings with customers.

Husband loves these shoes. He's a very wide foot and they fit immediately with no breaking-in time. Easy on/off for airport. Look great.

Pretty nice casual work shoe. The shine on them makes them look a little more "plastic" than I would like, but it's still a great shoe.

It's a great, beautiful shoe and you can tell that it'll be comfortable when you feel the sole on the shoe. But, it ran a tad too small so I had to return it. If I could find it in a larger size, I would totally buy it again though.

Two years ago I purchased a similar shoe from ecco and it looked great but was a little too narrow in the toe box. I lived with the shoe compressing my toes for a while but finally got annoyed on a long business trip and decided to fin a wider shoe. Zappos is my shoe vendor of choice so I surfed the models and makers until I found the style most near the ecco style that I liked and picked this Mendon. Ordered it in the "wide" size and couldn't be happier. My forefoot has room to spread out, the sole is rubberized for traction and they are very light. If you get the correct size for your foot you will love this loafer.

I am very fussy when it comes to a comfortable dressy shoe and out of the many I have tried, this one fits me perfectly. Very comfortable and classy look. I am happy to know one company did not give into the "Elf" look today in shoes. Great job Bostonian!

I think it’s a great item, I just ordered a 1/2 size too small, still learning how to order dress shoes vs sneakers.

Got these for a business trip where I needed to be a little more formal, but was going to be on the move and my feet all day. These are still working great for me almost 3 years later. I wear a 15 in my running shoes and sneakers, but had to have these exchanged for a 14 as they run large. Other than that perfect.

Great shoes. I did have to go down one whole size, within the EE width version. I'm not sure if the wider shoes were made larger length than expected, or what.

Decent shoe overall. I wear these types of shoes daily to work and usually they last me for around 6 months. Just started wearing these shoes so I guess I will know how good of a shoe they are in a couple months

Bought this for my husband. He loves it - says it is nice looking and comfortable as well as very lightweight. Only complaint is that the shoes are loud on hard floors.

Very good for the price. Bought the same shoes at Bloomingdale's (on sale) for $110 The Bloo shoes (made in China)read in the insole "BOSTONIAN FLEXLITE" When I did a search on Zappos with those words, the result was ZERO; however the insole of Zappos reads BOSTONIAN FLEXLITE. Fix that search Shoes were made in India and were a little larger (not enough to request a smaller size) Happy with the acquisition.

As always, shipment arrived on time. Shoes are really light weight and comfortable. They are not the most stylish, but after wearing them for a week, I would recommend them for people who have an office job, and they are a good shoe to put into the rotation.

These shoes look great. I bought them for my son's prom. He wears a size 13 medium width. These shoes run big. He wore black tube socks instead of dress socks and they fit perfect. Delivery was Very quick. Also, these shoes are more "bendy" than they look. My son danced all night in these shoes and said they were comfortable...and the bottoms are not slippery. Other than the shoes running big- I am very happy with the purchase.

A very comfortable, sleek shoe. Those who value a professional looking slip-on shoe ought look no further. It would be even sleeker if the toe were more of a point than a square, but this is a matter of personal preference.

I was first surprised with how light this shoe is...I mean it's really light. For those that like to have a shoe that has no perceivable weight on their foot, this would be the one. Overall, I like the shoe, but feel as though it felt a little wide at the ankle. I would recommend this shoe as a good all around dress shoe.

A difficult foot for slip on shoes led me to my first experience with Zappos. It was a good experience. I ended up ordering twice. The first time only one of the three pairs fit, but it looked like someone applied the finish with a paint brush - and quickly at that. The second four pairs ordered had two that worked. While the choice was challenging I chose the Bostonian Mendon on appearance. I was impressed with Zappos ease of return and the covering shipping in both directions.
