Quality shoe at a reasonable price
Love the quality of these shoes. My last dress shoes from Kenneth Cole lasted well over 5 years through daily wear and tear even though they were very cost-effective, and this seems to be the same great promise as my last pair. It looks timeless, is made of great quality materials, and the padded sole is perfect for long business days while on the move.They fit my feet true to size at a normal 9.5, and although the leather is a bit stiffer on my initial wear, like most shoes they slowly get a feel with your feet and grow to become more comfortable over time. They also look great, and the Oxford stamped grain will never go out of style for the working business professional. As of this writing, it is on sale for a tremendous price of $80, and they are well worth the cost. I'd definitely be coming back and getting more shoes from this luxury brand.

Classic Look with All-Day Comfort
These oxfords hit the sweet spot between dressy and wearable. I picked them up for a formal event, but I have already worn them to two dinners, a wedding, and a work meeting. They look sharp with a suit, clean with slacks, and even pulled together a more casual outfit with dark jeans. It is hard to find shoes that work that well across the board.The black is a true, polished black that does not scuff easily and keeps its shine with minimal upkeep. The stitching is clean and the overall design feels timeless. These do not chase trends—they just look good and get the job done.Comfort-wise, they exceeded expectations. I wore them for a full day without any break-in pain. The interior is soft, with just enough padding to make them feel supportive. The sole is flexible but durable, and there is good traction on slick floors.Sizing was spot on. I wear a 12 and they fit exactly how they should, with enough room in the toe without feeling loose or bulky.If you need a reliable pair of dress shoes that you can wear again and again without sacrificing comfort, these are it. Clean, classic, and worth every penny.

Quality Shoes
I have a similar pair of Cole Haan shoes, but I really don't like that most Cole Haan shoes have gone to the white sole. I really like that these shoes have a brown sole as they look more professional. The quality of the leather seems pretty good and the brown tone looks very good. They insole is very comfortable for walking around and the fit is true to size. I have no problem wearing these shoes all day and walking around the office.

Nice Shoes - Run Large
Compared to my older Kenneth Cole shoes, these run about half a size larger. Please see my photo for a size comparison. Overall, they are very well-made and good quality shoes. The style is classic and timeless. They are lighter than my older shoes as well. They are more narrow than the styles I'm used to wearing, but are still comfortable enough. These shoes are a good value, as they are priced well for how long they last.

Always in style
Ken Cole is a well-known designer and when I saw these, I knew that they should be good. Were they? The Lance oxford is a classic style that always screams, "professionalism" and these don't disappoint. To me, the fit and comfort are the most important parts of a shoe. There is always a break-in period that one must endure for the shoes to get used to your foot. That break-in period on these was just a couple of days, but they were comfortable to begin with. After the break-in period they are even more comfortable. If the heel constantly moves too far up and down during walking, a blister will quickly develop on the heel of the foot. If the heel is too tight for the foot to move at all, the constant pulling while walking will be very uncomfortable. The heal on these shoes pass that test, as just a little movement like a good shoe allows. Next the ball of the foot should match up to where the shoe bends while walking. If the foot is forward or behind of that shoe's natural bend, that will be painful after a few days of wear. These shoes are sized correctly and when purchasing the correct size that you wear, they will fit correctly in that area, as it does for me. The width looks narrow, but my wide foot is comfortable wearing these after many days. The quality is high on these shoes. The leather upper is thick and firm enough and the finish is nicely polished, and I've not scratched them at all. The sole is rubber and has a good grip on gravel and dirt, as well as concrete and asphalt. This type of sole is much more durable than the traditional leather sole. They are a good value for the money.
