Pros:
Comfortable, Non-slip sole, Stable
Cons:
one design flaw
Best Uses:
Everyday
very nice shoe for everyday wear. very comfortable, good looking design, well ventilated. Fit is nice and broad in the toes but not too loose in the heel - which I like. One minor design flaw: the tongue does not extend up far enough. If you lace the shoes up to their top set of holes, they will extend past the top end of the tongue. So, I can't use the top set of lace holes. I therefore don't get as secure a fit as I'd really like. But, it's not a huge big deal. I just wear them around town.
