Customer Reviews Johnston & Murphy Collection Baldwin Penny

Great shoe, fit great and was the style I was looking for !!

Too bad not offered in half sizes

Returned item, still waiting for refund information. Ordered a size bigger and couldnt even get foot into shoe

Too tight

I'm sad about these shoes. I like how they look, they're comfortable, and they fit well. However, they are extremely slippery on hard surfaces. The soles have patches of a material that feels like some sort of vinyl or plastic, rough and grabby to the touch. That seemed like a good idea, because leather soles can sometimes be a bit slippery. But these soles were much more slippery than I have ever experienced before, on dry pavement, on a hardwood floor, and on tile. I did not feel safe walking down my street, which has a 15% slope on dry asphalt pavement. Worst was our outside stairway, which is made of Trex, a common composite decking material. Trex has a rough, textured, non-slip surface, which has always worked great for us in all kinds of shoes in all kinds of weather. But in these shoes it's like walking on glare ice. Even trying to go down our steps slowly and carefully, in warm dry weather, my feet suddenly slid out from under me and I fell head first to the bottom. Not badly injured, but I simply can't trust these. The manufacturer should reconsider the material used on these soles, to make them less dangerous.
