Kenneth Cole Desert Men

I bought the Black pb chukka specifically for a three week trip to Singapore. I wanted something versatile and nice looking for a variety of occasions. I ended up having to pack light and they were the only footwear I wore during three weeks of heavy walking, long bus and light rail rides standing all the way, and trips to the 'countryside'.The shoes can be used with casual or nicer attire. I attended a wedding banquet wearing them, slogged through heavy tropical rain, navigated fancy and not so nice venues, and was able to get through long days without my feet being too unhappy. The shoes still look great after my trip and I expect to get a lot more use out of them.Yes, you can comfortably wear leather shoes in the tropics. And no, you don't have to look like a tourist wearing the typical uniform of tee-shirt, shorts, and crummy sandals. Home or away, these are a great chukka.

I absolutely love these shoes/boots. As others suggested, I ordered 1/2 size down from my normal size 12. I also ordered a can of spray leather stretcher and a cheap shoe horn. The first day I wore these I sprayed some of the leather stretcher in the toe box and around the back and front (where the tongue attaches to the body of the show) of the opening. Within an hour of walking around they stretched to fit my feet perfectly. They are soo comfortable and I am surprised how many compliments a shoe can elicit. Even though I have the shoe horn I am still lazy sometimes and just cram my foot into the loosely laced boots. That has caused the fabric lining to become unglued from the back of the shoe but it still works just fine. Love them!!! Without some leather stretcher and a shoe horn I probably wouldn't have kept them, though. They are narrow at first and difficult to get on but buttery soft once broken in. I also have two leather pairs, brown and black. Love them equally as well. Bonus that they come with two sets of laces in different colors!!

I ordered my usual size which is 11.5 , they were delivered 2 days after being ordered...not bad. When I tried them on, there was about 2.5 inches of extra room at the front. The shoes made my foot look much longer than they really are. I sent them back and ordered a size 11. Now there is about 1.5 inches of room at the front. I can live with that, but there is one other problem. The point where my foot enters the shoe is extremely narrow. It took a lot of pulling and twisting to get my foot in there. I'm probably going to keep them because they look very nice and I'm already wearing them to work but I won't get another pair. If you have wide feet these are not the shoes for you.

I bought these for my boyfriend as a surprise and he loves them! He didn’t have a nice pair of shoes to wear with casual or slightly dressy clothes so when I saw these I knew he needed them. They are comfortable, durable and stylish. The quality is amazing. He only wears them a few times a month when we’re going out or to family/friend gatherings but they still look brand new. I would highly recommend these for anyone looking for a nice, affordable suede shoe.

These are perfect finally a shoe that is cut with some width in the toe box area. I said slight large because I’m probable a 12-12.5 but never find a shoe that’s wide. Good look finding that!! The 13s fit well and comfortable with plenty of width. I wouldn’t call them wide just finally normal!! The small complaint they sewed a reaction label into the sole of the foot area. Stupid as you feel it sometimes like a very small pebble is under your foot. Dumb and dumber design. Waiting for the $$ to go down to get other colors/styles. I wish all the reaction shoes fit this well. Are you listening CK?

I have been a fan of the Clark desert boot for ages, but they have priced themselves out of my preferred range. I started shopping around and found these Kenneth Cole desert boots. Great fitting and sharp looking shoe at half the price. I have only had them a couple of weeks, so I won't opine on durability, but if looks and fit are fair indicators, I am expecting they will last as long as my last pair of Clarks.

Wore them 3 times and the 3rd time during an important event, this happened. I guess I got the worst of the bunch. Going to get them fixed at a cobbler, since they are comfortable and look amazing in whatever you wear. Just be aware the glue could come undone at anytime
