hush puppies

They have really nice designs and for a fraction of the price of other leather shoe brands.

they claim to be genuine leather, anyone can verify?

Genuine leather is one of the cheapest low grade leathers out there.
Genuine doesn't mean 'rea' leather lol.
Real men go for full grain leather.

thanks, didnt know about this.

my concern is just between genuine vs faux

Captain Samuel Vimes 'Boots' theory of socioeconomic unfairness.

"The reason that the rich were so rich...was because they managed to spend less money...Take boots, for example. He earned thirty-eight dollars a month plus allowances. A really good pair of leather boots cost fifty dollars. But an affordable pair of boots, which were sort of OK for a season or two and then leaked like hell when the cardboard gave out, cost about ten dollars. Those were the kind of boots Vimes always bought, and wore until the soles were so thin that he could tell where he was in Ankh-Morpork on a foggy night by the feel of the cobbles.

But the thing was that good boots lasted for years and years. A man who could afford fifty dollars had a pair of boots that'd still be keeping his feet dry in ten years' time, while the poor man who could only afford cheap boots would have spent a hundred dollars on boots in the same time and would still have wet feet."

They're okay for the money. It's hard but you just have to break it in.

It all just depends on your budget.
