text: Made in Mexico, rubber sole is not cut smoothly. I want to like these shoes and maybe &#34;Frye&#34; is worth 5 stars, but sadly the product page here is not entirely forthright. The description states &#34;Made in USA or imported.&#34; This is kind of a lead-on as the value price of mine (~$150) was not representative of a deeply discounted American made/quality product. Instead my pair was made in Mexico which in and of itself is not a problem...except for the fact that I wanted to support American business and American manufacturing.<br /><br />After rereading the description it is somewhat &#34;no duh.&#34; The product has to either be made in the USA or imported...it just doesn't do a good job identifying the pairs that are Made in the USA from those that are not.<br /><br />As is the case with most dress shoes, this pair is true to downsizing 1/2 size from athletic shoes (i.e. from 11.5 to 11) and fit comfortably once this small adjustment is made.<br /><br />Pros:<br />1. Fit well after downsizing 1/2 size<br />2. Quality of leather is good, soft<br />3. Stitching is intact, no fraying<br /><br />Cons:<br />1. Cannot distinguish where they are made until delivered/received<br />2. Sole rubber was not cut smoothly around the perimeter of the shoe
