I received a pair of these two years ago as a Xmas gift and was skeptical at first, having never heard of the brand and the way the odd spelling of it’s name invokes Chinese knock offs. However, I have been wearing these religiously and they are now my favorite loafer. I can attest to their high level of quality, comfort , and attractiveness in the real world. I receive so many compliments on these shoes I often find myself looking for more elements in my wardrobe to pair them with. Buy these and you won’t be disappointed. They have held up wonderfully and like most premium leather products they only get better with time.
