I wanted to love these
Size: 9, Color: Black Leather
These are very good looking in person, especially the buckles and the pop of red on black. Alas, I have another pair of Marc Joseph shoes to compare comfort and fit, and this pair simply hurts my feet.

very poor quality
Size: 14, Color: Black
they are a peice of garbage, within about a month since i started wearing them the outer material started pealing off within two months the upper separated from the soles so i had to go to a shoemaker to sew them back together, within some few months the insoles completely wore out rendering the shoes unwearable, now mind you that i do not abuse shoes but use them in a normal office oriented enviorment, i will for sure not be buying these shoes again

Great wallet
Size: One Size, Color: Brown River Print
Nice quality wallet that holds all of my cards. It is thicker than I would have liked, but it is a good wallet. I like that it has two pockets for bills which is nice because I use other currencies. The card sleeves have three slots each. One sleeve on each half of the bifold and a middle one that flaps back and forth to show both sides. One side of the flap has the three card slots and the other side has the clear plastic for identification. There are also a sleeve under each of the three card slots. The wallet has a nice texture and a nice color. It feels pretty well-made and it seems like it would last a long time. It fits like any other bifold wallet.
