THESE ARE BY FAR THE MOST COMFORTABLE CASUAL BOOT STYLE SHOES IVE EVER WORN AND EXPERIENCED. NO MORE TIRED HURTING AND FATIGUED LEGS!! IVE WORN THEM FOR OVER A MONTH AND A HALF NOW AND THEY'VE KEPT THEIR SHAPE VERY WELL AND THE SOLES DONT HAVE ANY VISABLE SIGNS OF WEAR!AMAZING! THEY ARE TRUE TO FIT.ALTHOUGH THEY ARE INTENDED FOR THE FOOD SERVICE INDUSTRY I STRONGLY RECOMEND THEM FOR ANYONE ON THEIR FEET AT WORK MOST OF THE TIME.IVE BEEN WITH THE AIRLINE INDUSTRY NOW FOR NEARLY 40 YEARS AND THESE HOLDENS ARE BY FAR THE MOST COMFORTABLE SHOES IVE EVER WORN AT WORK.THE KEY INGREDIENT IN COMFORT I BELIEVE OF THESE BOOTS IS THE PATENTED HOVER SOLE DESIGN MADE FOR SHOES FOR CREWS MANUFACTERER.THE UPPER IS A VERY ATTRACTIVE GENUINE LEATHER GRAIN MATERIAL ANKLE BOOT AND ITS COMBINED WITH THE PERFECT SOLE THAT HAS A MORE COMFORTABLE FEEL THAN MOST SNEAKERS IVE WORN!! THEY ARE MUCH MUCH MORE THAN A VERY ATTRACTIVE CASUAL ANKLE BOOT. THE OUTER SOLE EDGE DESIGN IS FINISHED VERY ATTRACTIVELY SMOOTH AND CONSTANT NOT TO LOOK LIKE SNEAKER SOLES FROM THE SIDES!THEY FEEL LIKE A VERY COMFORTABLE SNEAKER AND BEYOND!THE INNER HEAL PORTION OF THE SOLE I BELIEVE IS A FOAM RUBBER DESIGN THAT TRULY ABSORBS THE HEEL IMPACT WITH EVERY STEP WHILE WALKING AND GREATLY REDUCES THE STRESS ON YOUR LEGS.THIS DESIGN ALONG WITH MY WORK GEL INNER SOLES I ADDED ARE THE PERFECT COMBINATION!WHILE WALKING THRU THE LONG NEVER ENDING LENGTHY AIRPORT TERMINALS IM NOW WALKING WITH A SPRING IN EVERY STEP! THEY'RE SUPER COMFORTABLE AND NO MORE HARD IMPACT FROM OTHER SHOESWITH THE TRADITIONAL HEEL DESIGN!!THATS THE SELLING POINT OF THESE CASUAL ANKLE HIGH BOOTS , COMFORT!ULTIMATELY I BELIEVE THIS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT FACTOR IN FOOT WEAR.I MUST ADMIT THAT INITIALLY WHEN I RECEIVED AND HELD THEM IN MY HANDS, THEY FELT VERY LIGHTWEIGHT AND CHEAP!THEY'RE LIGHT DUE TO THE SOLE MATERIAL AND DESIGN WHICH TO THIS DAY HAVE WORN EXTREMELY WELL!I WAS SEARCHING FOR A COMBINATION OF AN ATTRACTIVE LOW CUT ANKLE BOOT WITH A COMFORTABLE SOLE OF A CROSS TRAINER.THANKS TO SHOES FOR CREWS AND AMAZON I NOW HAVE THEM!I ONLY WISH THIS DESIGN WAS AVAILABLE YEARS AGO! I HAVENT FOUND THIS DESIGN COMBINATION ANYWHERE ELSE!BRAVO TO YOU SHOES FOR CREWS AND THANK YOU VERY MUCH! ILL PASS THE WORD ON TO OTHERS!IM SO SATISFIED WITH THESE ILL BE ORDERING ANOTHER PAIR!
