Price And Comfort Conscious? Buy These!
Size: 10.5, Color: Black Leather
For the price, these are a great value. Super comfortable. I was looking for a shoe I could wear all day. Usually, this means you need rubber soles (no wood). You can't resole many one-piece rubber sole heels, but that's fine. Rarely do I do that since the top of the shoe shows so much wear, it makes me want to get a new pair of shoes no matter how much shoe-shining I do.
I own Saks 5th Avenue brand shoes, Cole Haan, and many other pricey shoes. Sure these Clark's don't look as sharp as Italian-made shoes. But Clark's are comfortable. With this particular shoe, they struck the right balance between fashionable and functional--a rare feat indeed!
My feet are normal width (D). Half my shoes are 11, the other 10.5. I got these in 10.5 and they fit fine. The toe box is only slightly snug, but I'm hoping they will stretch out in a month or so. I probably should have done 11's. If you are in the middle like me, err on a half size larger. I had a chance to try these on at a store (hesitated to buy at first). The toe box is long and the 11 seemed kind of big, so I went down a notch. In hindsight, 11 was the right size.
I couple things I could do without are the side slits that have elastic. They are minimal though. And at the end of the day, you probably don't need to untie your shoes to kick these off, but I don't recommend that. I was also not crazy about the inner lining. It kind of looks like pleather, to be totally honest. Either that or it's super thin and shiny leather. They have a cheap look to them on the inside, but who cares because you don't see them.
Overall, great shoes. Way to go Clark! These ones are winners and they look great with suit pants or nice jeans.
