"These shoes were bought for my husband. He usually wears a size 10 but I had to return them and get a size 11 since the 10 was way to short and tight. They are great shoes. He now has the black and the grey and loves them. They hold up great and don't wear out. He works 6 hours a day on his feet moving things out of houses so he has really put them to the test and they haven't failed yet. I would recommend these shoes for anyone on their feet all day, hiking, or otherwise."
