Product Description
The Bacco Bucci Men's Brooks Oxford features soft Italian calfskin that lends a luxurious feel to this cap-toe oxford. Traditional gilly lacing system and a dual-width comfort Xact system makes this a dressy, yet comfortable shoe. The leather upper and lining means this shoe can be worn for hours and the rubber sole is lightweight, yet durable. The Brooks Oxford is a business casual shoe that can be worn with a suit or dressed down with designer jeans. Made in Italy.

NIce, but...
I ordered a pair of these last year. While extremely comfortable and attractive, these shoes do suffer from a fatal flaw. Namely, the soles are not particularly longlasting: the (manmade) midsole split on both shoes of the pair.
Discovered on a rainy day, of course...my socks were drenched.

Very stylish oxford, but Bacco Bucci needs to be consistent with sizing ....
The Brooks oxford is a well executed mix of style and tradition. The quality of materials and workmanship of the shoe is excellent. The design is very contemporary but retains enough of the traditional look so as to be still readily recognized as an oxford.

I have been generally very satisfied with my purchases of Bacco Bucci (this is my third pair within the past 6 months). However, sizing was an issue for me with this model. I previously purchased a boot (Morrow) in size 15M that sported a very similar design and fit me perfectly. So, I got the same size in this and was surprised to note that the shoe was a bit tight at the arch of my foot. In this model, 15W seems like it would have been the right size, in retrospect. Hopefully, the shoe will loosen up a bit with time, and get more comfortable.

I realize that between brands there are some sizing differences, but did not think this would have carried over into similar looking models made by the same company. Bacco Bucci loses one star for this; At this price point, this size discrepancy is unacceptable.

Other than the above, I have little hesitation in recommending these shoes to anyone who wants to move beyond the traditional cap toe oxford.
