The shoe is an excellent choice and works as intended. My experience, initially, was that the 'break in' time seemed longer than a typical leather boot. I have a high arch and it is supported well but it also requires me to be somewhat loose with the lace up when tying the shoes. I found that my choice of sock to wear with the shoes greatly changed my comfort. 'Old man' thinner calf length socks rolled/folded down to the ankle top give me the most comfort. Regarding the tread, the shoes will collect a lot of material and if you think a normal bushing/rubbing will clear the tread before going inside, someone will start asking where all the dirt is coming from that shows up in the house. I found it better to let the shoes completely dry and then slap/pound the thread down in the pavement (outside) to dislodge all the collected material. I call them my 'lego shoes' for obvious visual similiarities. They are good enough for what they are make for.

Fit small. Uncomfortable. Toe is pointed up to high. Which made them uncomfortable. Definitely like the yard shoe better.

Good shoe. Get a season out of them and get a new pair every year. Mine always tend to fail at the toe. Have received a few that weren’t glued all the way across the toe. So I have to look for that when you first buy them.

I love all my items! pants very thin but durable! boots comfortable and keep my feet dry.
