I'm actually glad I oversized these a bit.
These are pointed oxfords with an interesting diamond or scale like pattern on them. Not typically my usual style but it is nice to switch it up every now and again. At an 11 they fit, though I am usually a 10.5 and there are rough bits on the inside I'll have to apply moleskine to. Not really bits that are rough for the shoe themselves, just parts where they don't fit my particular feet right. Other than those bits they were okay as far as comfortability. I wouldn't go walking super far in them or anything, but for a day at the office or for a restaurant or something like that they are perfectly serviceable.
I don't think they will hold up in the long term as I do see areas where the construction is a bit lacking. The padding in particular needs some work. I imagine I will be able to keep them around a bit longer with some glue re-application (this is easy to do, and generally if you are anything like me the sole tends to separate on shoes first).
Overall I think they are an okay value here. They aren't really comfortable enough for me to be a daily driver kind of shoe, but for a special occasion and to fit a particular outfit they are nice to have in rotation.
