Over priced lesser quality imposter of the olukai alapa li shoes. Buy olukai and save money and inherit the olukai quality

At least an inch too long. Otherwise nice comfortable shoe but it's too big.

I love the style. I wish I would have bought a shoe 1/2 size down. The associate that fitted me talked me into buying a little larger than I normally wear and now I don't really wear them because they don't fit right.

This may be a nice looking shoe but you will Not receive what you are looking at. What I received was a much darker grey, and the green highlights around the ankle do not stand out the way it is rendered here so the overall look is much different. However, I still liked these enough to keep them but I would not have ordered them in the first place had the photo looked like what I received.

I have many J&M. Size 11M. These are not sized correctly. It 11M I received is at least an 11. 5M. I wore them and figured it out after sloppy fit. So I live with them. BTW the label for size is not in the shoe anywhere - just an 11 on the underside of the sole insert.

Comfortable, but don't go outside in rain or snow as the breathable feature has three holes in the bottom which leads to wet socks.

On sale item came having been worn previously. Toes scuffed, bottom showed obvious use. Not up to Johnston and Murphy standards. I'd say there's room for improvement there.

I've been purchasing from Johnston Murphy for quite a while, and always a nice assortment of their items. Shoes, Chinos, Belts etc. I've always been a loyal client. My latest purchase was a pair of Active U-Throat Shoes that appeared to be shipping within a few days and with acquisition in a week. BUT a week into the order I receive an update that now estimates mid-October to receive these shoes. It's UNACCEPTABLE to appear that something is in stock and ready to ship, then be told it's months away. I wanted these for a vacation...and If I knew of the delay from the JM Website, I would have chosen something else. This practice sadly makes me have to re-think future purchasing...and maybe try other brands.

I haven't put this shoe through any rigorous wear and tear. They have been worn 3 times and the gray coloring or paint on the white mid sole is starting to chip/peel off. I have worn them to a meeting and 2 times around the office. I expected more for a shoe at this price range.

I bought another pair of a shoe I had happily worn for two years. The new pair wasn't quite the color shown on the website but ok. The website indicated the shoe ran slightly large so I accepted its advice (I forgot to compare with my old pair). The new shoes felt tight but I thought maybe they'd stretch as I wore them. They didn't and are too small. I'll have to buy another pair of shoes so disappointed.

Poor fit, ran wide on my foot. Called Cust Service HQ and was given a store near me to return. Drove half hour to said store and they don't do returns, they Fed Ex shoes back to HQ and then I wait for reimbursement on my credit card. HQ lady was nice, wish I hadn't been sent to that store. HQ lady, Nancy? Took care on her end fine

I like the shape and design if the shoe. I just didn't like the material of the shoe. It felt really "plastic".

Nice looking shoe, but I was disappointed by its flimsy feel, uncomfortable fit and hard inner sole. My new pair of New Balance sneakers felt snug and comfortable from the start. I'm sending the JM Amhersts back and keeping the new balance shoes. I have liked the JM dress shoes over the years, but not these.

Loved the look, but I wore them in the house for a few hours and they were uncomfortable. The fold of the fabric rubbed the top of my feet and I wasn't confident that they would break in. I was disappointed to have to return these shoes, the first pair of JM shoes I've had a problem with.

Shoe is too wide and loose. Does not provide a comfort fit and feels like it widens when I walk.

The shoes are very light, good quality, nice style, and did appear to be true size. However, they either run small in length, or their backstay and heel counter are defective because they have created a huge, bloody, and painful blister in each of my feet especially the right one. See pictures attached.

I love Johnston Murphy shoes and I have over 12 pair of your shoes. These have rubbed blisters on my ankle and the top of my foot with the side edge and on the tongue of the shoe there are rough surfaces. So far I am disappointed in this shoe
