Initial WOW
Got my mens oxford black hi gloss shoes today 1/30/13. Have been wearing them around the house for a couple hours now to insure fit & comfort. WOW. The style number is E00941. Initially all feels a-ok. Want to break them in around the house for another day or two to insure initial evaluation is as good as I think and deserving a WOW.

I was issued a pair of these seven years ago and I was very reluctant to wear them. Yet after wearing them with my uniform and with my work uniform. I love the way they look. Now I'll admit they are not the most comfortable pair of shoes I own. I've walked over 100 miles in them (no exaggeration), broken them in and it's got it's share of battle scars.. Mainly from people dropping their m1s on them. (Those people will remain nameless.) They are a good and long lasting shoe that I would recommend to anyone I know. Unfortunately I've gotten to the point where I've outgrown my old pair and I'm not looking forward to the price tag. Yet I'll be glad to get another pair. My only complaint on them is the price... but when you think about it, I got more than my money's worth out of those shoes.
