Great shoesThe quality and fit are perfect! Feel great while wearing. Fit as expected. Very stunning and expect to receive many compliments!Overall here's my take after trying them for a while:✔ The shading and color scheme are gorgeous.✔ Pattern and design are flawless.✔ Vent holes blended on pattern design which cools you off.✔ Easy to break in.❌ They don't really feel like true leather shoes.❌ Sole looks glued and not sewed.Overall, I think these shoes look amazing, but you have to treat them for what they are. They are look-only / make-up-type clothing. That said, should you buy them?It's hard to tell since shoes that "look" like these usually go for a higher price. If you are willing to compromise quality over looks (Wich you can pull off by just wearing them occasionally), I'd say it's not a bad idea.For the past year or so i have been wearing formal shoes from the Alipasinm brand. During this time I have found a brand that I now trust and feel confident anything they make is a sure fire gem. With this lace up black color dress shoe I can again add another classic to my Alipasinm collection.I like the way my foot feels when housed inside the nice pigskin lining which seems to work to keep out odors and excess dampness. My favorite thing about this shoe is the outer visual design. I am a fan of smooth as well as holed surfaces. I like how on this shoe the ventilation holes are located in a matrix at the very toe end of the shoe. This is great for people such as myself who have large feet and in turn have large toes that often become overheated after hours of wearing them. The vent holes are spaced out in a way that makes them a part of the pattern with a unique display. There is a circle that forms at the tip of the toe which is made up of the said holes. This is made even more of a standout due to a thin strip of holes based area right above the main matrix of holes and right below the smooth surface section. As for that smooth part i love how it still is the dominant surface in that the whole middle is shiny and smooth. I love this design and have not seen a dress shoe that looks quite like this.I like how the rim around the shoe acts as a sort of bumper to prevent potential damage. I love this sturdy rim around the shoe because I always find myself accidently kicking open a door or lightly kicking the back of whatever desk I am at. With bad tick habits like that I like to know there is a little extra guard on the shoe i am wearing.I like the heel region which seems to be slightly raised more than what I am used to . This is great for gaining that extra bit of height that can be useful.The Alipasnim people always hook you up with nice accessories. This one came with shoe mitts as well as a large shoe horn brandishing the companies name.I am at work now and have been wearing these shoes for about six hours and my feet feel great. There was not even a breaking in period they are instantly awesome.In conclusion I am again super happy with a shoe from this brand and recommend this with enthusiasm.I ordered the Alipasinm shoes online against my better judgement. I've ordered shoes and sneakers online before and been disappointed at what shows up.Not in this case! The shoes are beautiful, well built (solid leather and stitching in body and soles) and they fit comfortably right out of the box. That's not always the case. I wear a size 13 and always assume I'm going to have to break them in.All in all, I recommend these shoes. If the look online looks good to you, I think you'll be very happy when they arrive!Sorry about my son's hairy legs - hope they don't distract you from seeing the quality of the shoes! These are nice shoes - not awesome, but a good pair of nice-looking dress shoes for my son - comfortable and pretty decent quality. I wasn't overly impressed with the quality of the leather, but my wife and son didn't share my opinion - they like the shoes and, for the price, these are nice dress shoes.These are some nice looking shoes.They go with all color pantsI like the stitch work on them and very nice craftsmanship.Only thing I did not like is that I have a wide foot and I had to squeeze my foot in them.But that is common so I expected it.Overall, these are great shoes.I got this for my husband who is 5’-11 3/4” tall and weighs 195-200lbs. I like the style of this shoes which is very classy. My husband wears it everyday at his office and he loves it. He has a wide feet and usually wear size 11 wide but if it’s pointed I usually get him a size 12. Since this is a pointed shoes I got him a size 12 and he said it fits just right and is very comfortable. His feet doesn’t hurt unlike other pointed shoes that he bought from the mall. He got plenty of compliments with this shoes and he bragged it that I got it for him. I think it is not a top grain leather but high end leathers won’t let your feet breathe and painful to your toes. Overall, we like this product and I highly recommend it for everyday use.
