Super cute black oxfords. Get lots of compliments on them when I wear them. Love the worn look. They definitely get more comfortable the more you wear them-they are stiff at first.

Let me first start out by saying, this is a beautiful shoe! They do not make shoes like this anymore. This is part of Bed Stu's organic line. I ordered a 9.5, which is my normal size and I was excited to read other people's s reviews saying that it ran narrow, which is good for me. The 9.5 arrived and I tried them on, and they felt like a 8.5 or 9.0! I quickly called to get a size 10 to compare. The 10 fit great and no fit problems right out of the box. I kept the 10s and sent the 9.5s back. They have a tapered toe that will pinch your toes if you do not size up a 1/2 size. There is a break in time to allow the stiff sole to flex and conform to your foot. I'm getting used to looking at them on my long thin feet. I asked my husband if they made my feet look big and he said that is like asking "does this dress make me look fat"! Needless to say, if you have long feet, they will make them look like skis. I don't care, I'm keeping them anyway. They look great with skinny jeans, skirts and dresses. I love all the detail on them and I'm sure I will have these for a long time. They are that well made. They are very fun shoes and I'm sure you won't regret buying them! I may get them in another color!

These are the second pair of Bed Stushoes I've owned, the first pair being a loafer. They both were VERY snug when I first got them. Don't worry--they will quickly start to stretch out. I wore thick, wool socks with them in the beginning and it really sped up that process. I also took an unexpected 2 mile walk in them which was an obvious mistake and I got blisters. However, if they are anything like the other Bed Stus I owned, they will quickly turn into the most comfy shoes ever and will mold to your feet perfectly. Sometimes high quality leather just needs a little time and patience. The shoe look exactly as pictured with a great vintage leather, imperfect appeal. I have worn them with pants and they look just as good, if not better, with a skirt and knee socks. Very unique and I have a feeling they will last forever.

Wow! Love these shoes! I was a little unsure at first and thought they might be a little quirky for a 65 year old but...Wow is all I can say. Classic and comfy. I was unsure of the size. I am usually an exact 8.5, but when they came I thought they were too small and quickly ordered a 9...it arrived the next day (thank you Zappos!) so I could compare the two. The 9 was way too big, so my decision was made. I will wear the 8.5 with a thin dress socks or stocking...if you want to wear the shoe with a very thick socks, you might need a half size larger. Love the natural leather smell when you open the box. I am buying a pair...or maybe two in another color.

These shoes are a smidge lighter than in the picture (I ordered the brown). I usually wear an 8.5 and I ordered an 8 since they are authentic leather to accommdate for stretching out. That was a good call as they fit perfect. These shoes are like butt-ah! They are so comfortable and they look even hotter in person than in the picture. They work great with jeans and with dress pants. I can't say enough about them!

These shoes are exactly what I wanted. I love the style, but the fit is what is truly noteworthy. The leather is so soft and the shoes fit comfortably right out of the box. I have worn them without socks all day and they are totally comfortable. No pinching, no blisters. The leather seems to give to my foot making it seem like a second skin. It is clear that a lot of craftsmanship went into making these high quality shoes. Lita has quickly become my a favorite. The distressed style looks unique and vintage. I can't wait to buy another pair of bedstus. I couldn't be happier with my purchase.

These shoes are beautiful. If you are looking for a quality leather wingtip, spend the money and buy these. I have never owned a pair of Bedstu, but their craftsmanship is superior. When I opened the box the leather smell and the distressed look made me glad I bought these. The size was perfect; however, if you have wide toes, you may find these to be too tight in the toe box, but for me they fit great! Zappos is great, 24 hour free delivery!

This is a cute shoe but it seems to run half a size too small. I generally take a size 8.5 in Nike sneakers and hiking boots and an 8 in flats. According to the sizing recommendations Zappos said to buy the 8.5. It was too small. I ordered a size 9 and they felt quite nice. But I'm returning them because as like the pair of 8.5s, the stitching on the shoes was off. Stitching on the vamp of the shoe would run off the overlapping piece of leather that makes the wingtip look, onto the lower patch of vamp leather. At almost $200 these shoes should be better stitched. Aside from that, the shoes seem quite sturdy, comfy and fun to wear with jeans.

These distressed tan Oxford Brogues are very beautiful! And, comfortable! I had ordered up 1/2 size & the fit & comfort was perfect. I had probably ordered 5-6 different styles of brogues as I had never owned a pair. I wanted to compare. Unfortunately, these were returned. Although they were the most beautiful & well made of all the brogues I had ordered - they were & looked 1 size longer than the other brogues that fit me. That, plus the leather sole made the shoe look quite masculine on me. My husband actually thought I was showing him shoes I bought for him when he saw them on my feet! These may be perfect for women with smaller feet (I had to order a size 9). I actually kept a pair that was much less money, just as comfortable, shorter in length & thus, cuter.

Absolutely beautiful shoe. It hurt to return them, but they hurt even worse to wear. I am a 8.5M, and opted to size up to a 9, but still they were too narrow.

I love the look of this shoe, but the fit was all wrong. Even though I usually wear a 9 to 9.5, the 9.5 was way too small. The uplifted toe also didn't look or feel good when worn. Wish it worked out, but returning.

I really do like my Bedstu Lita Oxford shoes. They are definitely very cool looking, but also they are quite comfortable as well. I have received a ton of compliments on them as well. These shoes are definitely worth the price I paid for them!

I have another pair of this same oxford in different color in a size 9. I also ordered two different colors of this shoe in a size 9, one of them in the black. However, the black oxford size 9 felt super tight, as if it was the wrong size. Sure enough, when I compared the shoes bottom to bottom, the black size 9 looked about a 1/2 size smaller than the other two pairs of the same Lita oxford. Yet the size on the shoe said 9. So I don't know if this shoe now runs small, or if it's a defect.

I've never spent so much money on a pair of shoes before, but they looked amazing, so I tried them. After reading the reviews, I ordered up a size b/c I have a wide foot. Upon opening the box, I was in love...until I tried them on. My foot was a good two inches too short for the shoe, so I had to send them back. I ordered this shoe in a diff. color from another vendor in my true shoe size, and it works. The shoe initially feels too tight in the toes and too large in the heel, but it will stretch some with use. I wore them with socks to "break them in" the first time, and without the second, and I didn't get any blisters, so that might be something I recommend if you initially find them a little tight (the heel is still a little loose for my comfort, but as long as I don't get blisters, I can live with that). They look stunning, and I do get a lot of compliments on them, so although they aren't the most comfortable shoes I own, they don't give me blisters, and they work with a lot of the clothes I own.

The shoes fit well, but as indicated in other reviews, the toe was more brown than black. Also, the insoles looked the be shoddy construction and didn’t fit the shoe’s foodbed well at all. I returned them regardless of the good fit.

Love these shoes but being leathery on the bottom they are slippery. Took to a shoe cobbler to but something on the bottom of them and he laughed at them and said I hope you didn’t pay much for these...the stitching that holds the sole on is exposed on the bottom of the sole so when the stitching gets worn the sole comes off. He said to wear that stitching off and he can resolve them for me. These should be cheap for how poorly they are made. Save your money.

I love Bed Stu shoes. I own four pair! Love them. And I really wanted these in black and brown, but I have ordered them three different times and each time the color was way off. None of them had any black on them, just a different shade of brown. I know there was a qualifier that there could be a bit of a color difference, but there was absolutely no way anyone would say any of these three pair were BLACK and brown. I’m so disappointed. Maybe I’ll try again in the fall. If the color doesn’t matter, buy them, but if you want black and brown, good luck!

Love the look of these Bed Stu wingtips (ordered the tan color) but they were very snug. I typically wear an 8 1/2 so that’s what I ordered. But I’d need at least a 9 in this shoe, maybe a 9 1/2.

This is my second pair. I have the two-tone and I just received the black. These are the most comfortable shoes and they are super cute. I get compliments every time I wear them. I know these are not inexpensive but they are worth every penny.

I love these shoes. They are beautiful and he best pair I have purchased in years. I recommend going at least a half size up though.

Gorgeous shoe in quality not found for this price in women’s shoes. Sadly though too small. I’m a consistent 9/9.5 and the 9.5 didn’t fit. Wish Zappos had a 10!
