Customer Reviews Johnston & Murphy Activate Plain Toe

Comfortable shoes, lightweight and fit true to size. I would have liked a little more of the brown leather on it to appear "less like a sneaker" and more like a casual shoe.

Only complaint is the top lace eyelet rubs the foot

Good choice on comfort

When I bought the shoe I used by standard size for JM shoes. This shoe ran much smaller. Returned it for a 1/2 size bigger. But, aside from being too small, it was comfortable.

comfort and style made this shoe work for me

Not a bad sneakers but runs a half size big and little wide.

I wear a size 13 Nike sneaker and have a pair of J&M oxfords that are size 13. These in 13 were way too big. Slipped on and off my foot. They look great and felt great in terms of cushion. But the sizing was way off. Hoping a size 12 fits because they don't have a 12.5.

Didn't like the round toe for business. Want something more stylish.

Shoe is comfortable but not very durable.

Stylish shoe but my foot swam in it. I normally wear a size 11 across most brands. In this case, the size 11 was correct but my foot had way too much room width wise and it made the shoe very unstable. I ended up returning the shoes as a result. My advice would be to reduce the width.

I bought these hoping they would be a good pair of every day athletic/walking shoes. I ordered my normal size but when I tried them on they were tight in the toe box. Yes, a larger size might have worked but a larger size would have been too big to be comfortable. Very disappointed they didn't work out.

I bought a pair of these and a pair of J&M Activate U Throat shoes. The U Throat model is leather and is very comfortable. I found the polymer in the plain toes model to be much less comfortable. It has less give, and doesn't breath as well. It looks stylish, but I wouldn't recommend it.

I have wide feet. The promo for this shoe said M/W width and if you want wide, just take out the insert. Well, when you do that, it does feel wider but there is no arch support. So, had to send them back along with two other pairs of different styles that had the same issue. Why not make wide shoes? Love the shoes but can't wear them!

Love the look and feel but I don't think they'll hold up. Within 2-3 weeks of wearing maybe 15 times, the sole is showing cracks where the sole bends. Disappointing because they are very airy (I have sweaty feet) and very comfortable.

Overall great look and feel in terms of the shoe. The quality on the other hand was lacking. The toe of the shoe started to fade red. I only used the Johnston and Murphy shoe cleaner. Still no luck only had em for two months wouldn't recommend if you plan to use sever times a week for causal formal wear.

I love the look and fit. It would be a perfect fit if sizes came in Wide. Overall it felt a bit narrow.

Loved the look and super light weight - but where the shoe folds when walking irritated the last toe on both feet - tried another pair to see if just the original pair - same results - couldn't wear without discomfort

Did not fit my foot to narrow in upper foot bed.

Love the comfort and quality. But returned because of the style. Didn't like the material. Made it look like a golf shoe

Comfort could be better.

The white canvas fades in color over time to a yellow that has to be dyed again to look clean. Not the most comfortable shoe for walking in all day either.

Quality and comfort were poor

Not as padded or comfortable as I expected. Returning for a replacement because the coloring on the top of sole is peeling.

Lightweight and soft cushion. But do not fit my feet well. Also, look is kind of cheap at least in the gray. Look faded and old right out of the box. This is a one off and I will be trying another style of JM however.

I didn't like the style so I returned them
