Light and comfortable alternative to leather oxfords
I have been wearing Nunn Bush shoes for many years as they are one of the few shoe brands that focuses on making their shoes as light as possible. This makes a huge difference if you walk long distances in your shoes as every ounce of added weight leads to exhaustion over miles of walking. I was excited to try the Kore Swift Moccasin Toe Oxford as it seems to be a bit different from all my Nunn Bush shoes in terms of materials. All my existing Nunn Bush shoes are made from breathable mesh materials, which works great in dry weather and hot summer days, but not so much when it's raining. The Kore Swift shoe is unique in the way that it seems to be a lot more water resistant as it doesn't have a mesh upper fabric. It is a lot less breathable than my existing Nunn Bush shoes, but will be perfect for rainy days when I wouldn't dare wear my regular Nunn Bush shoes.The shoe is really well made and feels solid and durable. It is a bit heavier than my mesh fabric based Nunn Bush shoes, but still a lot lighter than a leather shoe. It is also a lot more comfortable than my leather oxfords as it bends a lot more easily. The shoe runs a bit larger than my size 10 shoes, so you can size down by half a size if you prefer a snug fit.Overall, this is an excellent shoe for those looking for a light weight and much more comfortable alternative to a leather oxford shoe.

My Feet Think I'm Going Jogging, But I'm Just Going to the Kitchen.
These shoes are pretty comfortable right out of the box. The insoles have good padding, which is key when standing around the house managing the chaos or cooking dinner. My feet definitely appreciate the comfort level.Be aware, these shoes run narrow. The length feels true to size, but the tight width makes the overall fit seem a little small. If your feet are on the wider side, these probably won't work out well. They seem built for regular or slender feet.The style is a dressier athletic shoe, so I wear them for work calls or running errands. I wouldn’t use them for my regular workout, but they are great for alternating daily wear. They are breathable, so my feet don't overheat even when things get spicy in the kitchen. The combination of the formal upper material with the flexible sole material makes them highly practical for long days on my feet without looking sloppy.

Comfortable and true to size...
With a purposeful design for non-slip and lightweight combined with a little dash of flair with the broguing on the heel, these are interesting shoes. I like them.I'm fairly particular about lightweight and the use of synthetics. I want something that breathes, is light, has cushion that is still supportive and proper arch support and I've seen that in mainstream athletic shoes but it's harder to get in something that is an acceptable work-casual shoe.The black shoes hit the mark the best. Good grip with the sole, enough so that I was walking in the snow here yesterday with them and had plenty of confidence on the icy parts. Good fit with minimal heel slip and a nice foot bed. I usually know within 10-15 minutes if they are going to spend a life on my feet or on the closet shelf. I redid the laces because I have to have them my way but they're long enough and they're black as well.The end result is a cushioned step that will probably make my knees hurt less as it was noticeable how there was a little dip and rebound and that "spring in your step" that can only mean there is less harshness on your joints.I would have like if they had carried the brogue theme to the center where the quarter meets the throat and/or the toe cap of the shoe. It's a touch of old-world shoe making in a modern application.I think they're a reasonable buy for comfort, light weight and traction in slippery conditions. Time will tell how well the front of the sole stays adhered but I'm hopeful. 4.5/5.0

Great versatile pair of shoes!
So this is a really great versatile Oxford. I wore it on a business trip where I was trying to minimize my luggage and these were the only shoes I brought and I was a big fan! They definitely exist as a dressier shoe but the look can also function as casual with khakis or shorts! Very comfortable and the included cushy insole was very much appreciated! I work on my feet a lot for work so I know a comfortable shoe. I also have flat feet and the arch support wasn’t uncomfortable or firm but still there enough that I felt supported. I wear anywhere from a 9.5 -11 in men’s with a good median around 10 and these were true-to-fit. Laces tied tight enough and didn’t have any worry of tripping or them falling off. A really solid pair of shoes! I haven’t truly tested their long-term durability but I managed around Miami for several miles and still felt comfortable and not fatigued like a bad pair of shoes leaves you feeling. Get these, you won’t regret it!
