I just got my DZR Ovis shoes in the post and they are absolutely terrible quality - they look like they were finished by blind arthritic monkeys.
The leather is really thin, the soles have no cushioning - simply a thin insole sitting on top of the nylon shank, the finish/stitching is terrible, there is no way to get the rubber cover off without slicing into damaging the sole, and possibly losing a finger in the process.
They are a good concept really badly executed, and easily the worst £95 I have ever spent. They are going straight back. I can't understand how anyone could give these good reviews at that price. They would be alright for £40, but for £95 I would expect a shoe that looks like it would last more than 3 months. I will be making my own out of a pair of old trainers.
