J Shoes Gully Men's Cognac/ Mid Brown Suede/ Leather Bellows Tongue Shoes are a fantastic summer lace up featuring a short nap suede upper on a stitch down construction, two pairs of eyelets for lacing & a durable & lightweight JS-Lite rubber sole. A bellow tongue is a specific kind of shoe tongue that is connected at both the top & sides of a shoe's upper. The advantage to buying a shoe with a bellows tongue is it fits right over the top of the foot & makes it easier for the foot to slide into the shoe plus ultimately making the shoe more comfortable.
