Lightweight, nice mobility compared to clunky workboots. Only issue I had was they only lasted six months before I totally thrashed them. Got them in wide, but they still split open on the instep where the ball of my foot is on both shoes in the same place. Started to fray on the top of the toe as well. Though I go to work to work--I put all my shoes through the ringer. But if you're like most Americans and only go to work to show up, feel comfortable, look good, and collect a paycheck, then look no further. These are the shoes for you.
