I used to buy these shoes exclusively for business and casual wear. In fact, I use to encourage my male reps to "splurge" a treat their feet. Never again! This is the 2nd pair of shoes that have had the soles/heels completely disintegrate while walking. The 1st time was at a major trade show and the 2nd was when I was just starting a new job. Embarrassing to say the least after hearing "you should spend more money on decent shoes." right.. Don't buy! Not worth the cash, embarrassment AND hassle! I should also mention I store my shoes in a climate controlled closet with cedar shoe stretchers. No way these should have this issue. ...and finally, I'm guessing this company is tired of the complaints and photos because I've had 3 failed attempts to upload photos, absolutely ridiculous.
