Very beautiful shoe, I would say it's a bit more formal for a sneaker. It does take some time for your foot to get used to it because it's a bit hard at first for a sneaker, but once the shoe "breaks in", it's really comfortable. The leather it has makes it unique and beautiful, as you can also wear it with slightly nicer clothes, like a shirt for example, instead of just everyday clothes that you would wear with regular sneakers. It's also a bit shallow, meaning that it doesn't cover the surface of the foot up to the ankle, but stops a little lower.
