text: These shoes were more an 8.5 rather than 7.5 like I ordered.  Also, the left shoe is noticeably bigger (longer/wider) than the right.  Also, the picture shoes a smooth leather, somewhat pebbled, yet the shoes received are a brushed pigskin like texture.  I will keep them, but probably won't wear them without thick socks and padding in the toes.  They did come on time and are very well packaged.
