Received my Matthews on Friday. First impression: a really nice shoe, leather is very supple, superb comfort, sole is beautiful and they seem overall very well constructed. But, as a shoe connoisseur, I like to let all senses immerse into a new pair of shoes ... I would not have purchased these had I only been able to smell them. Unlike with other high-end shoes (e.g. Gaziano & Girling), I only get the smell of glue ... No nice leather smell :-(

(note, that these are samples)

Here are some photos:

I would think that the shoes being samples that they would have been produced some time ago (hence not having the smell). However, my cordovan bal boots do still have the scent of shell cordovan. biggrin.gif

I like the last and color of these. I've had bad luck with monks so I will hold off but those look really nice.

I feel you here. I am a shoe guy but can't subscribe to some of the newer offerings due to the inevitable "quirks". I need shoes made by a firm that has been in business at least a 100 years.

Update to my previous posting:

After a full day of wearing my new Matthews, I can not only state with confidence that these are the most comfortable shoes I have ever had the pleasure to introduce to my feet, but also the scent of leather has taken over the scent of glue that had initially dominated ... I definitely am most happy with these. They fit like a glove and are a joy to wear.
