Customer Reviews Johnston & Murphy Bradford Dress Cap Toe Oxford

Where the leather sole keeps chipping off where it comes over the side of the shoe on both pairs I tried. Lucky for me that Zappos has a great no hassle return policy. I mean I can color it with black marker but I don't think you should have to on a shoe that end up being $140 with tax.

Excellent oxfords. As with any high quality dress shoes, be sure to condition and polish - doing so will eliminate the squeakiness others have mentioned. The leather soles will be quite slippery at first; this can be addressed by gently rubbing with soles with sandpaper. Get good shoe trees for these, and they will serve you well!

These shoes squeak very loudly when you walk - probably because of "patent leather" that is very stiff.

Fit was good. Wish they’d lasted longer than 2.5 years - wore a hole in the soles and didn’t think I was too hard on them.

great shoes, great service.... I was looking for dress shoes with leather sole... there no to many around anymore, so.... thank you..

Did not want pattern leather shoes. Could not tell on line!!

These were very comfortable and well-made shoes. They were a little too shiny for my taste (they were almost reminding me of the patent leather shiny shoes you wear with tuxedos) and I liked the style of the Florsheim Sorrento Cap Toe Oxford better. In addition to being less shiny, the Florsheims had a longer toe (versus the rounded toe of the Bradford), seemed a little more "current", and had some interesting detail in the heel. But that's all simply a matter of subjective taste/opinion. If you like the style of this shoe, I would 100% recommend the Bradford.

Good purchase...nice style, decent price. Thanks Zappos for fast ship in time for a funeral unfortunately.

The fit was pretty good. However, ask the manufacturer to make wider shoes. I don't think all the manufacturer of shoes realize how many men now days have wider feet. One of the main reasons men have wider feet is because from the time they are little kids and on, all they wear are tennis shoes or sneakers. Tennis shoes and sneakers do not have a good width structure and tend to let the foot spread wider and wider as the kids grow up. society now has wider feet. Shoe manufacturers can make lots of money providing the general public with wider shoes that fit better. No one seems to pay attention to this fact. There is money to be made for all. I hope this Review goes to management and not the trash can.

Excellent and comfortable shoes, love them

Perfect dress shoe in black! Bought these because I needed a true black dress shoe. Like the cap toe, looks really good with a charcoal grey or black suit. Best feature is the leather sole. Hard to find a leather sole on a dress shoe without breaking the bank. Great value and they look sharp. Highly recommend for a man's wardrobe.

Perfect for wedding

Nothing beats a proper cap toe Oxford and this is it. Perhaps the best all-around shoes I have ever owned.

Size, looks, price, comfort just what was advertised (and expected). Delivery was much faster than advised. Overall, greatly satisfied.

Very happy with my purchase. Good fit, quick delivery, fair price.

Very comfortable for. Leather feels comfortable.

My husband absolutely loves these shoes. They are very classy and comfortable.

These shoes are fantastic. They look and feel great. True to size, they fit perfect. The leather soles are very comfortable. Highly recommend them.

Great shoes! Takes a time or two to break them in, but them they feel amazing. Very classy shoes. Johnston & Murphy delivers!

Great quality shoe at an affordable price. Will last for years

Beautiful, classic dress shoe. It looks terrific with a suit, or go sockless with narrow, up-turned pants or shorts for a nerdy/hipster evening look.

You need to tell your manufacturers to make wider shoes. I have already submitted a review and you your company seems to have lost my previous review. There is money to be made when you provide more wider shoes...wider than 3EEE and 4EEEE in men's shoes. Now a days men's feet are wider. Please don't throw my review into the trash can. Forward it to your management staff.

These shoes look really slick from a distance, but up close there are some inconsistencies in the broguing that make them look a bit cheap. Not truly a patent leather, but definitely more plastic-y feeling than I was expecting. I ultimately returned them, so I cannot speak to the comfort or durability after a solid break-in period.

Excellent quality and extremely comfortable, thanks Johnston & Murphy ?

Great purchase, love the soles. I didn't realize it was shiny brushed leather which is too glossy and hard but a little rubbing alcohol took away the sheen and they look great.
