Jousen Men's Oxford Plain Toe Dress Shoes Classic Formal Derby Shoes

Quality product, fast shipping and satisfied customer!

These are really good shoes. I purchased a pair in June of this year and wore them most workdays for six months. The are extremely comfortable, fit great, look great, and hold up well. I get a lot of compliments on them. My first pair wore out in about the same amount of use that I get out of leather name brand shoes (six months of daily wear). So, I bought a second pair exactly like the first, and am planning to continue to buy more each time they wear out, pretty much indefinitely. I would like to say thank you to Jousen for these great affordable shoes.

I enjoy a great pair of shoes... leather Oxfords, leather soles if available, solid laces, comfortable, well-priced... these are things I look for when searching for shoes. They'll last me years because I take good care of them. If you are a connoisseur of shoes, then you know your shoes. I know that it's rare to find a good pair of Oxfords/dress shoes online (or otherwise) for the price of these, but they have their good points. I've owned a lot of Oxfords that I wear to work. One scuff, and the cow that gave their life for your shoe is rolling around in their grave. They're super difficult to remove! And don't let it be those shoes that look wonderful online, but when you get them, they smell like gasoline for years. Why would I continue purchasing shoes that cause my automobile and office to smell like gas, that cause my tonsils to swell? I didn't just mow the lawn with these, you know. Shoes should be ready-to-wear out the box... I DENOUNCE the idea that I should 'leave my shoes outside' or put them in a bag of sodium bicarb to get rid of the horrible smell! Never again! Okay. Back to my review of these shoes. :} These shoes... well, you get what you pay for. The pros: 1). Comfortable 2). Not easy to scuff 3). Flexible and durable; upper, inner, and bottom 4). Cheap (compared to leather shoes). Damage? Easy to replace. 5). No sickening my-shoes-just-went-on-a-date-with-the-gasoline-nozzle-while-the-gas-was-running smell. 6). Nice, medium width 7). Tasteful style 8). Not easy to stain 9). Super-light! You won't even notice you're wearing them. The cons: 1). They are too large. I had to return my original order and reorder one size down (from 13" to 12") 2). Poorly made; I don't believe the string at the bottom of the shoe is actually used for attachment to the shoe itself. I had to send the shoe back (again) AFTER ordering one size down because the thread was quite loose from it's intended space at the bottom. You could literally pull the string with your finger, let alone a pair of tweezers. I believe they're glued. The sewing machine (or person) used to make these shoes look like the thread is functional needs to be recalibrated. 3). The hue of color between the shoe/sole/bottom isn't consistent. It seems that someone hired their child of 7 or less years of age, gave them an unscented marker, and asked them to 'Have at it' with their non-dominant hand. One of the pairs I sent back looked like someone scuffed the front of one of the shoes, slapped it back in the box, resent to another customer. With every pair I had to send back, I kept my fingers crossed that the next pair would be better. But, it's what you get when you pay for shoes like these (rolling my eyes). 4). Lack of ventilation. Leather breathes, these do not. I feel like my feet need an asthma pump after a day of keeping these bad boys on. 5). Slippery bottoms. You literally may benefit from standing on the road and scraping the bottom to get a little bit of 'grip' on them. This is a half-con because eventually, it gets better within the week. Overall, these shoes are decent for the price. I've not owned non-leather shoes for years, but these are worth being in my closet. I have a black pair and a brown pair, and my review is the same for both of them. I had to send the black pair back about 3 times (size, damaged product, damaged product), but at the end, I'm satisfied. (=

Needed a pair for when I wear my suit. I was hesitant on buying them off of Amazon, but they are great. Good price, fit comfortably and look good.

Good

Very nice shoes for half the price. Buy them! You won’t be disappointed.

The fit is good

Very nice shoes for a workplace setting or a fancy restaurant. Only issue I have had is that the area around the heels scratches me after long term use and makes them uncomfortable to walk in. Other than that, the style was exactly what I wanted and most of my coworkers have complimented the look of them and have asked where they were from. These shoes can go with any kinds of pants; khaki, gray, black.

Very good leather.

Para su precio están bastante bien. De vista les doy un 9 y de comodidad un 7, lo cual es mucho para el precio que tienen.

Relación precio calidad!

Me gustó el modelo, pero pedí 6 mex y me mandaron 8
