Cole HaanMen's Lenox Hill Cap Oxford

Excellent shoes. 13 wide size is very true to size, comfortable, and no squeeze at all on my high arches. Very good looking and without flaws. Just got them, but I’ll try to update after a few months!

Love the shoe. Fits wonderfully and has a very high arch which I needed. I would recommend this shoe.

Great shoes. Ordered the used like new, they seem brand new, just not in original box. Fit slightly big, if you’re between sizes go for the smaller one.

Nice shoe. Purchased for a my daughter’s wedding. Fits a decent insole decent as well. Dressy and looks good with a suit.

First, the reader should be advised that I'm an "old school" guy that has spent a lifetime grousing about the cost of shoes ... ALL kinds of shoes ... tennis shoes ... dress shoes ... hiking shoes ... flip-flops ... you name it. I'm the guy that regularly prowls the shoe section at re-sellers like Marshalls and Ross, always searching for that once-in-a-lifetime bargain/value that miraculously shows up in my size ... "you just gotta get there on the right day ..." Am I right, men?While all that prowling has undoubtedly saved me a small fortune over the years, it also taught me something. Sometimes, you just can't get what you really want unless you're willing to spend what it costs. That's the way I feel about these shoes. I knew I wanted a captoe Oxford in this color, and I spent a LONG time looking at LOTS of different makers/designers on Amazon. I never found anything that looked as nice as these Cole Haans.For the reasons explained above, I never previously bought this label, so I wasn't sure about the sizing. My last pair of high-end dress shoes were Bostonians (and yes ... I groused bitterly about the cost when I broke down and bought them), which "ran short." I got those shoes in 13D, which fit and served me well through some pretty heavy use over a number of years. So, I figured I'd try the same in the Cole Haans. My mistake ... in 13D they fit just OK at the widest part of my foot (a little tight, but not uncomfortable), but WAY too long in the toe, and just didn't fit my foot right. Didn't have a lot of time to mess around, so I put the first pair aside and re-ordered another pair in 12EE (W), figuring that adjustment would make the perfect fit, and then I'd return the first pair, after I was sure.The second pair fit my foot like a glove, right out of the box. Very comfortable, and a perfect fit for my foot. Unfortunately, with the second pair, I also noticed a small irregularity in the upper sole stitching on one of the two, right at the ball of the foot, and a blemish in the tanning on the tongue of the other.Knowing I would never be happy if I "settled" for that, I put that pair aside too, and ordered a THIRD pair, also in 12EE (W). The third time was indeed the charm ... this pair was perfect in every respect, and in my opinion, worth every penny they cost. The "British tan" finish is really nice, and exactly as shown in the photo. The stitching is flawless. The leather is supple and uniform throughout every surface of the shoe. The heels and soles are very thick and strong ... a bit stiff at first, but I'm a big guy, so that's fine with me. My Bostonians had leather soles, and I realized (after wearing completely through one of them) that rubber soles, like these, work better for me because I do as much walking on outdoor surfaces like concrete and asphalt as I do on tile and other indoor surfaces.Amazon made my return of the first two pairs a breeze, and they started processing a full refund on my credit card the same day I dropped the return boxes off with UPS. Thanks, Amazon ... you made this particular online shopping experience a real pleasure for me -- not only in helping me find these terrific shoes, but also getting them to me quickly, in the perfect condition and size I needed. Once you figure out what size actually fits you, you'll love these Cole Haans ...

I have previously purchased dress shoes from Meijer at a price point of $30. However, I often found that they did not fit properly and became uncomfortably tight after wearing them for a full workday. As a result, I frequently felt the need to switch to sneakers.Recently, I acquired my first pair of high-quality office shoes, which were an investment of over $180. Upon trying them on, I was truly impressed by the quality and fit. I opted for the wide size, and they slid on effortlessly, offering remarkable comfort.This experience has taught me the importance of investing in quality footwear. By choosing to spend more, I have found that I can dress well, look professional, and feel comfortable throughout the day.

The Cole Haan dress shoes arrived yesterday, and I very excited/anxious to be receiving them. I ordered them for a close friend's wedding, since I was invited to be an usher. I figured it was time to update my shoes, since my last ones were on the verge of retirement. Easier said than done for a poor college student. It took a good chunk out of my paycheck, but I was able to order the shoes just in time for the wedding with 3 days to spare. Well, I can honestly say when the shoes arrived they were, I sure was surprised (both in a good and bad way.) The shoes themselves are of really good quality. I've worn many dress shoes throughout my life (my family is religious.), and there are some things that I would like to point out about these shoes. Some dress shoes the leather is softer, more pliable, than others; well, not this shoe. These are as stiff as a board, with very little give. That can be a good or bad thing depending on one's opinion. I personally like dress shoes that way. With the shoe being so stiff, it does mean they'll be taking some breaking in. Now I bet your wondering why if I liked the shoe, that I gave them one star. Here's why. The pair of shoes I received, well, it was obvious that they were used. To be honest, I expected shoes that had been tried on like you would expect in a shoe stores (it's hard to find a pair of shoes that haven't at least been tried on once by someone else.) The issue I have, it that the pair I received was obviously used/abused for a couple days, then returned. There are scuffs around the shoe, but scuffs aren't hard to polish out. The heal is worn, by outside use if I could guess (concrete/pavement) it's harder to wear down the heel of a shoe on carper or tiles. The shoes also have permanent creases already from excessive use (still livable, since I was only going to do this to the shoes myself.) But the biggest issue was the gash taken out of the side of one of the shoes. Everything else could be seen as normal use or polished out. Holes in leather shoes are harder to cover, and all you really can do is try to make them less noticeable. However, this was the breaking point for me. If I wanted a pair of used shoes, I would have bought used shoes. I would love to return them, but I need them for my friend's wedding. Which is the most frustrating part. is what really frustrates me. And I'm not one of the people that would use the shoe for a day and then return them (as you can see already happened to these shoes already.) So for a recap:Pros:-Stiff shoes (harder to break in, but more preferable for me.)-Look (the style and sheen of the shoes are great. You know the saying, you get what you pay for, and the quality of these shoes is well worth the price.)Neutral:Like many others have already mentioned, order smaller shoes than you normally wear. I wear a 10M (U.S.) in tennis shoes, so I ordered a size 9M and it fit perfectly.Cons:Don't expect a new shoe out of the box when it arrives. If you need them for an event like I did, order them weeks in advance so you can return them if necessary. (I normally do, but didn't have the money at the time to do it. I had hoped that Amazon would pull through with their regular reliability, but was let down when I needed it most.)I would have given these shoes 5 stars had they been New, but getting damaged used shoes when you pay high price for new shoes is unacceptable.

Nice and confortable, Very well done Good quality materials except for the sole which is plastic they woulf be better with leather soles.
