Gordons are a great value for money. Yes they are inexpensive but for a price point shoe they perform well. Just purchased this pair-(wear dress shoes several times per week) and this new pair replaced a pair with the build date of 2007.
Keep them conditioned and they will last for you.
I like the wider base and the last seems to fit my foot better than many other lasts.
Wish they would bring back the lighter shade of brown. It seems to be popular right now.
