I bought the Twisted X Chukka Driving Shoes and loved them so much, that I had to get another pair. When I saw these ones on sale and my size available, I snapped them up. They are as high quality and comfortable as the driving shoes. In addition, the blue etching gives them extra style (the color isn't as vivid as depicted in the picture). I highly recommend there. Keep in mind that they run a smidge large, not overly so. This allows you to wear them with thicker socks without issues.
