Customer Reviews Johnston & Murphy McGuffey Casual Plain Toe Sneaker

The shoes are very nice and comfortable. The very bad thing about them is that they are making noise while I am walking. They are squeaking. I am thinking to return them if there is no solution for the squeaking.

I love the look and feel of these shoes and only wear them 1-2 times a week, which is why I was disappointed to see that the sole was starting to come away from the upper

I love J&M shoes. Usually I am a 10.5. I was so confident about sizing that I bought this shoe online, only to find that it "runs small". I am disappointed, and will now have to order the 11 and undergo the inconvenience of processing returns.

Not a lot of support for the arches. Feels flat.

Not a lot of arch or support in general, feels flat. May need to add insole

Comfortable shoes. Listed as Gray but it is more tan/brown.

The shoes look great, comfortable, the downside is when walking on laminate flooring the shoes squeak bad.

Great looking shoe. Would be 5 stars but made in China.

The style and material are as you would expect from J&M. The interior cushioning was quite poorly executed. While the heel cushioning is adequate the cushioning provided for the ball of the foot feels now existent. Bottom Line: While they look great (4+ stars), they don't feel great on (1 Star) - especially if you intend to walk any distance while wearing them. These should be my favorite pair of shoes, and sadly, they're not. For that reason, I give this a 'non-recommended' recommendation. I still love J&M, but I expect more from this brand.

The tongue of the shoe slips up your foot as you put the shoe on. Once on, it is difficult to pull the tongue back down. The shoe is delightful once on, but a real pain to put on. I have 4 pairs of recently purchased J&M shoes and none of the others have this problem.

Good casual shoe

The shoes look great. However, my feet ache after a short time wearing the shoe. I believe that the arch support is no-existant causing my feet to ache. The shoes are hard to remove or enter unless all laces are mostly loosened, (which is time consuming)

Love the style and colour of the shoe just wish there was a better product to clean the nubuck part of the shoe . The sole trim cleaner is fantastic however .

I've had a lot of people ask where I got these shoes...and many who went out and bought them after. I have two pairs...but I've now learned my lesson. The shoes look and feel great for a while. The first thing that goes are the laces...and good luck trying to find white laces of that length and weight to replace the laces that come with the shoes. The soles wear down pretty quickly (about 6-8 months if you're walking in them a lot) and eventually they're done. This is a lot of money to spend for a shoe that needs new laces after about 3-4 months and has a life of about 8 months to 1 year. Many of the other J&M shoes have the same pattern--look great at first and quickly show signs of shoddy workmanship.

Runs 1/2 size big. If you're between sizes, go with smaller. NO support at all, totally flat arch area.

great for casual dress

I enjoy wearing the shoes as they are very comfortable and I get compliments on them. However, the sole started to became detached on the first pair within two days of purchase. I had them replaced and now it is happening on the second pair, although it is taking longer on this pair. I rated a 3 because I really like the shoes, but the quality is poor.

footbed comes out every time I take my foot out. Not so easy to replace after a while. Very annoying.

I really like the look and feel of these shoes, and I've received compliments. However, they make a loud popping noise when I walk. The noise comes from the break point in the foot on the top of the shoe. It's almost like the shoe is trying to snap back to straight which causes the noise. Unfortunately, I don't really wear them because the noise is awkward. I was hoping they required a break-in, but I've worn them about a dozen times and the noise remains. Maybe I received a bad pair?

I bought these 5 months ago and they were awesome. Love the look and they are extremely comfortable. However, after about 3 weeks of wear they developed a squeak or rather a creak. After about another month or two of wear i figured out the creak is coming from somewhere between the sole of the shoe and midsole (under the insole insert). I thought maybe this would wear out of them but that hasn't been the case, it has only grown from a nuisance to a flat out annoyance to to point of not being able to wear the shoes at all.

I like the shoe, the way it looks, the comfort and the fit. However, after only a week or normal office wear, the stitching is coming unglued around the sole.
