I've effectively replaced all my dress shoes by buying the brown and the black versions of these Polar Fox shoes.These shoes earn 5 stars for the style- I've worn them at work, at a couple weddings and have gotten lots of compliments from men and women alike. The price notwithstanding, the material looks great, and the shoes have a medium shine in between a matte and a glossy finish. On the brown shoes especially, the blue patch and shoelaces match the brown of the shoe perfectly.What I also love is that the laces are texturized so they don't come undone quickly. My previous dress shoes have all had that problem where I'd need to re-tie shoelaces twice/thrice during a workday.The shoes are very comfortable too. They do look narrow and, at first glance, I thought they wouldn't be very comfortable. But the sides of the upper hug my feet and provide excellent support. I've been able to wear them for ~10 hours at a stretch and haven't felt encumbered at all.
