Streetcars Men's Saddleback

I previously owned a pair of these that I bought at Kohl's. They were very soft and comfortable immediately and didn't need a break-in, that's how awesome they were. Kohl's no longer carries this line, so after mine finally broke down after a couple of years (worn alternating with other shoes, so a few times a week), I was happy to see them available on Amazon.The outside looks pretty much the same, perhaps with some minor differences, but the insole is very different and I found this newer version a bit hard to walk around in. They seem to require a break-in period. I wore them a few hours a day for a couple of days, but they've gotten gradually less comfortable throughout the day to where I couldn't wait to take them off. I've not worn them in a couple of weeks, but will give them another try for short errands to help the break-in along. They look good and feel good when first put on, but they are definitely more firm than the prior version I had.

I've worn Strertcars Saddlebacks for years and always in an 11M. I don't usually buy shoes online, but because this model was no longer available in local retail stores and I knew how they fit, I decided to buy a pair through Amazon. Unfortunately, the shoes I received were about a half size larger than those I had purchased in the past. The labeling inside the shoe was also slightly different than earlier pairs, which might be related to the difference in sizing. Otherwise, the quality seemed consistent with my earlier purchases. I returned the shoes but may order a half size smaller.

I have been wearing these shoes daily for around 2 months in an office environment. The insole is already flat and provides no support. I can feel the "framework" of the shoe through the insole. Beyond this the stitching is coming out on the front of one of these shoes.I have owned several pairs of Streetcars and they have always lasted at least a year.

Disappointed. Internal shoe support was not the usual Street Car insole I am use to buying. I was memory form instead. The support shown on your listing was the usual one, ASC, not memory foam. That is false advertising!!! I does not work nearly as well as their usual product. And that was the original reason I started using Street Car products years ago. I will not buy from Amazon again.

I had a pair exactly the same except some of the material has changed. The previous pair did not have memory foam in the sole. That may be why they feel smaller. They're not uncomfortably small, but noticeable. Still a good shoe.

I ordered this shoe because I have worn out my first pair. After three years I have to say this is the most comfortable and rugged shoe I have ever worn. I like it so much I just ordered another pair in "black" even though for some reason it is was priced $15 higher than the 'brown" pair.

I bought a pair of these locally a couple of years ago, and they quickly became my "everyday" shoe for work and leisure. Very light, comfortable, and provided good support. I ordered a second pair (tan) online, and had the same experience with them. I had hoped to find the dark brown locally again, but no such luck. Delighted to find them on Amazon, and they were comfortable right out of the box.

Having had several pairs of these great shoes over the years- I have good reference as to what to expect. This last pairfelt as though the leather had dried out -and instead of immediate comfort - the shoe felt more like card board thansoft leather. I am more than willing to overlook this and am hopeful that they will wear in a short time.
