These shoes are my new travel shoes. They are cute and comfy with no seams to rub blisters on my feet.Love these sneakers have two pairs and want more but can’t find any other colors in my size. They are wool, breathable, really comfortable and they look cool.Very nice, a bit chunky but great products.The heels were too stiff, making them uncomfortable to walk in. Other people may prefer stiff heels.I love these shoes! They do look a bit on the bigger side, but they're super comfortable. I got them after reading reviews of how comfortable they were. I've had severe foot pain for several months now and I thought these might help with the healing process. My foot does still hurt, but not so bad while wearing these. They look well made, so I think they'll last. I got a different pair that ended up being smaller in the toe area. My son got those and he adores them. They really do look unisex, too.I found these shoes chunky and felt like I was walking in moon boots. They are comfortable and have good support. I wear a size 8 and ordered that size. They fit well. The shoes are not hot. They are breathable despite the wool. These shoes are high quality and made of good materials. The color that I ordered was a lighter gray. They wipe down well if any dirt gets on the shoes. Overall, these are great shoes.So, I guess dreams really do come true. These are it. I mean, what is not to love? My feet are a wreck. I have spurs on top of my feet and my heels. They are really really painful. I have large bony growths below my ankles (so big they are beyond spurs) I had the growth removed on the left foot so a giant scar which gets irritated easily. Needless to say, my feet are never not hurting. There is always something going to be uncomfortable about shoes. I put these on, and my feet sighed in happiness. The tongue is nice and thick so there is minimal pressure from the laces. You can tie them tight if you need. The shoe itself is flexible so if your feet are a bit wider, you're not going to have the pressure points of a traditional material. The threading holes do not have metal grommets even though they are stitched very well, excessively tight lacing can cause enough friction to damage the shoes. The insole is easily removable to put in your own if you need. The ones that come with the shoes are amazingly comfortable. There is not a defined arch support more like it shapes to your foot as you walk. When I took out the insole, I could see that the shoe was actually stitched together as opposed to the quicker method of gluing the inside together. That proves to me this is a well-made and cared about product. The tread is not excessively grippy or slick. IT seems to have that just right balance of walking tread for a variety of surfaces. The toe box is large and roomy and with the natural fibers of the wool they are breathable. I do not think that overheating or hot feet will be much of an issue with these shoes. I have really cold feet, so I am hoping they will reach a comfortable living human temperature not a corpse temperature that my feet usually are. They were not itchy, and I have no problem going sockless. The best thing was the heel padding. I find most shoemakers skimp on the padding and I need to add some. Not with these. The padding was nice and thick, and my Achillies were so happy. All of my feet were happy. Plus, I get the added benefit that these are better for the planet, and they are made in Korea. But if you are also anything like me and really watching the budget and thinking $100 might be too much. Let me reassure you that a cost benefit analysis is that these are so comfortable that the initial investment is worth it. If you wear these shoes roughly 100 times, they cost $1 a wear. SO, in less than a year you have gotten your money's worth out of it. If you wear them more than that then you save even more. Let's save the planet with happy feet! These are all my opinions. I hope it helps. Happy shopping! Cheers!I have another pair of Le Mouton that are higher on the ankles, and I love this pair equally as much! super comfy, breathable, and stylish, AND dirty comes off relatively easy off these sneakers. I got some dust and sand on them from the dog park, and they came off with just several pats. I will be purchasing more shoes from this company!
