Velasca Milano — My first pair and so far, I’m very impressed.

As I’ve developed an extensive collection of mostly leather-soled dress shoes over the past couple of years, I recently inquired with my podiatrist about leather soles vs. rubber soles. My podiatrist, pointing to his shoes, said rubber soles, as they produce better shock absorption.

So, for traveling and walking in the city, I set out to search for casual/fashionable oxfords with a rubber sole.

After exchanging a few messages with Velasca’s customer service, I decided to try a pair of the Brumista - waterproof suede leather semi-brogue oxfords.

Velasca — Brumista (dark brown suede)

Here’s some stock images from Velasca’s website:

Very comfortable to walk in with the vibram rubber sole with nibs.

Also, received a compliment on day one at a casual event at the opera house.

I’m looking forward to wearing, and reviewing, other Velasca shoes in the near future.
