Customer Reviews Johnston & Murphy Upton Plain Toe

I'm a J M regular with 100% satisfaction with every purchase, not sure I can say that about the Uptons I just got. The initial fit and feel was great but after 3 times wearing them the left shoe has gotten uncomfortable and ill-fitting. Also the finish has changed, not sure how they'll look after cleaning. I love the brand but would've picked another style in retrospect.

Would prefer more sole support

Unfortunately these did not work for me. JM is a great brand as I own 2 other pair. These seem to run large and the smallest size available is an 8. They were exactly what I was looking for so very disappointed.

I love the way they fit. They sold me a cleaner that has seemed to stain them. So they don't look as nice.

A little clunky. More bulky like a work shoe... comfortable. So giving a chance to break in.

Shoes run big then couldn't figure out exchange process so just returned them. At eventually try to reorder.

The white core of the shoelaces is visible through the brown covering shortly after getting the shoes . I called Johnston and Murphy and was told that you can't replace because you don't carry "accessories"!!!! Very disappointing!!!

The seams were not great. The replacement wouldn't arrive in time. They age okay, but I wouldn't buy these again.

Looks and quality is 5 star but fit only gets 1 star. The back side was wide and the front was narrow.

The toe portion of the shoe scuffs easily. Light weight is a plus along with comfort. The longevity concerns me for the price, tbd.

While this is a very good looking shoe, it needs padding in the heal to make it comfortable. Due to this, The break in period is taking much longer than it should and also causes some irritation and blistering on the top of your heel. 3 stars for me

Just a few months of wear and the laces.... Great looking shoe. Maybe a bit larger than the size, need to add n insole.

These shoes look great, and the insoles are soft. They just rub your heel because the insoles are so soft that your foot sinks a little in the shoe when you walk. I'm not sure I would buy them again. I had to add a cushion for the heel to be able to wear them. For the price, I was expecting more.

My old pair of J&M casuals finally wore out and these were the closest I could come. They are significantly lighter in weight, which is good, however they feel much cheaper in quality vs. my old shoes. Additionally, the heel is much less defined/pronounced than I was expecting. I would call them a serviceable replacement, but not sure I would get them again.

Very comfortable, as all J&M are! Great looking shoe! This one, however, is difficult to recover from accidental scratches or scuffs on the toes. Worn mine maybe twice and they no longer have the fresh new look, even at my best efforts to buff and shine them so they won't show the scuffs.

Do not find this shoe comfortable. Rubs the back of the heal and the toe has collapsed.

Look great out of the box, very comfortable, quality is less than expected.

Not terribly unusual for a new shoe to rub. But a little surprising to have a J&M shoe do it. The fit is good, so that's not the problem. Not the end of the world, but I'd gotten used to instant comfort with my other J&M shoes (pretty much all I buy on the dress side. Its J&M and its not cheap, so I had expected more from this casual shoe.

I think this is may a bit premature as I want to give the shoe another couple of wears before a true rating. Love the color and style but my day one in the shoe the leather didn't break and I have a blister on my left heal.

Nice looking shoes, but they rub on the backs of my heels and after a couple of weeks the laces started to come apart.

too big, too shiny

This shoe runs a half size smaller than a Brooks or New Balance shoe size. It runs true to a shoe made in the US. I had to return for a smaller size.

The shoe just wasn't what I expected.
