| Pros |
- Got my first pair in late 2021. Brown Crossover Longwing. They were awesome. Great quality, support etc.
- Hands down the best shoes I own. Wolf & Shepherd have completely exceeded my expectations.
- Absolutely worth it for $269-289. The leather is good quality, the comfort is top, no complaints.
|
- Redesigned toe box prevents deflation
- Thicker, bouncier sole with enhanced cushioning
- Better overall comfort than the original model
- Maintains breathability despite improvements
- ZQ-certified Merino wool with sustainable farming practices
|
| Cons |
- For the ridiculous price, you could easily find a real dress shoe with more comfort by getting a marked down pair of Allen Edmonds.
- The only downside is you're limited if you want to refurbish the shoes, and their resole services could be better.
