    Durable and Comfortable

    Love the build quality and rubber toe wrap. I find that they need a bit of time to break in. I use these almost daily and love this category of sho because I can ware them all day at work and then go on a hike.

    very durable, sizing can be weird

    will last forever but tighter than you would expect. I would go a half to one full size up from normal shoes

    Wonderful Shoe

    This shoe fits EXACTLY a advertised. It is comfortable and extremely durable. I have worn them in the mountains of southwest Asia and across eastern Africa. The grip is excellent and the toe rand saved my toes more than once. They may be a bit hot and little heavy compared some other approach shoes, but its a fair trade off for durability and comfort.
