Ben Horowitz, cofounder of Andreessen Horowitz and one of Silicon Valley's most respected and experienced entrepreneurs, offers essential advice on building and running a startup--practical wisdom for managing the toughest problems business school doesn't cover, based on his popular ben's blog.

While many people talk about how great it is to start a business, very few are honest about how difficult it is to run one. Ben Horowitz analyzes the problems that confront leaders every day, sharing the insights he's gained developing, managing, selling, buying, investing in, and supervising technology companies. A lifelong rap fanatic, he amplifies business lessons with lyrics from his favorite songs, telling it straight about everything from firing friends to poaching competitors, cultivating and sustaining a CEO mentality to knowing the right time to cash in.

Filled with his trademark humor and straight talk, The Hard Thing About Hard Things is invaluable for veteran entrepreneurs as well as those aspiring to their own new ventures, drawing from Horowitz's personal and often humbling experiences.

Poor quality control… Received a used pair
Size: 12, Color: Birch Beige/Farro/Ivory, Size: 12, Color: Birch Beige/Farro/Ivory
The shoes that were delivered showed signs of wear. Not sure if this was a used pair or a display pair but this should have been caught from the beginning. I would normally return them, but will be out of the country for the next month and don’t have the time. Unacceptable quality control from the official cole haan store front.

Poor footbed but otherwise good.
Size: 10, Color: British Tan/Dark Chocolate/Natural
Comfortable. Replaced mediocre footbed that has no arch support with something else and it is now great. True to size.

Best autograph pens I've found!
Color: Multicolor, Size: 1 Count (Pack of 4), Style: Fine
I love these pens! They come in a nice hard case so no worry when throwing them in a backpack. Perfect for autographs, they dry extremely quick and are very brilliant colors.
