Cole Haan

Zerogrand Stitchlite Oxford

Men's

Something is off with these shoes. I want to like them - I like the looks, the top material is lightweight and fairly breathable, the nike sole should be comfortable ... should be, but shoe isn't. Sizing is weird, but I'm not sure that's it. Other reviewers commented on sizing so I ordered three sizes to try (9, 9 1/2, 10 ... I am usually a 10, sometimes a 9 1/2, rarely do I have to go down to 9). The 9.5 was too long (definitely over sized, or at least over long). The 9 fit but ... my foot was popping out top of shoe, like the shoe is too shallow (not a problem I've ever had with any shoe). Sole feels like it's rolling over itself when I walk. In order to get a better fit, I took the insole (something I normally do not do) out which helped. But still something is off - they just aren't comfortable. The fit is off - not too big or too small, just off. The sole feels cloudly and sorta rolls over when you walk. Ended up wearing the 9 for 2 days before returning - I NEVER return shoes after I wear them, but I tried 3 sizes and felt I had it sized right and wanted to give them a chance. Something is not right with this shoe. It's almost great, but something is off with the design.

I purchased these for my husband and had to return them 3 times. He normally wears a 10 1/2. I kept exchanging for half sizes smaller until we reached 9 1/2. They are still too long. He is afraid the 9's will be too tight. Like another post said, there is something off with these shoes. My husband is extremely disappointed. He wants to love these, but can't.

I normally wears 7.5 this shoe runs 1/2 size bigger. Returning this one an getting a 7.0

I should have listened to the other reviewers. I couldn't agree more with the majority...the shoes are ODD. And like most other reviewers, we wanted to like them because they are really sharp looking and super comfortable. There aren't many shoe styles that work with business casual and have the comfort of a sneaker. Unfortunately the sizing is super bizarre. We ordered his regular size, 10.5 and as most people have already said, they were really long in the toe box. At least 1 1/2" too long. And they pinched his foot on the top in an odd place. Seemed like they might be a bit narrow. There is no way you could go up or down in size because of the odd way they've designed the shoe. Really unfortunate.
