I bought these in Jan of 2017 and still wear the same pair (replaced the insole) two years later. add some lacelock's and these are the perfect shoe for EMS. The no slip soles are one if their best features. as a 300lbs gorilla-esque mass of humanity even i can be surefooted standing on the roof of a car or an oil slick road in the pouring rain. seriously, these things take everything except ice. it also has a steel toe which comes in handy. my only problem was that the plastic insert in the heel disintegrated about 1.5 years into owning them, which is a good run considering these were worn 80+ hours a week on a truck that averaged 7 calls in a 12 hour shift, but then i had to cut the fabric in the heel and manually extract the millions of tiny pieces.

l Love these shoes, super comfortable, but a bit on the large side

My husband wore these men's fashion oxford sneakers tonight for the first time. He says they're comfortable and he loves the tan leather. He didn't have any trouble lacing them up either which can be trouble for him sometimes. The soles are rubber with pure leather and fabric for the upper part of the shoes. They're comfortable to wear with the breathable mesh lining and Ortholite insoles that wick moisture and odor away. Helps to prevent fungus. My husband said the inside are very comfortable to wear as it has more cushion than he expected. The bottoms of the rubber soles have anti-slip traction for better movement even on rough ground.

I bought some water shoes through Lands' End years ago, and their inside, next-to-the-skin portion was not nearly as smooth and comfortable as these shoes, but the construction and basic principle is the same.
These water shoes have a firm, rubber sole to protect the feet from rough ground, and they have a good grip on slippery rocks to prevent falls. These are closed-toe shoes, which means they also protect the top part of your feet and your toes.
They look, from a distance, as if they are just regular athletic shoes. However, unlike most athletic shoes, they do not use tie laces. Instead, they have an adjustible "bungee tie" system, which means your shoes will not come untied, and you can slip these shoes on and off and still have the shoe feel securely fastened.
These shoes have holes for draining water and a mesh construction on the upper part which both releases water and dries quickly when you return to land. Note that these shoes are "water ready" but not waterproof. They will definitely get wet.
As to size, if you will for some reason be wearing socks, then you might want to go up a half size from your normal size. These shoes are meant to be worn without socks.
These shoes would be perfect for wading in the ocean or a river or stream. They would be great for rafting, inner-tubing, or boating in general.
The color is a masculine charcoal with yellow trim, and they are technically made for men. However, if a woman knows her comparable size in men's shoes, I don't see why a woman could not wear these as well.
The price is rather steep for what these are, and that might give some people pause. I'd recommend shopping around and comparing prices before you decide on these.

Super comfortable shoe. Admittedly they feel just a bit loose (size 10 wide for a 9 1/2 wide foot) but not enough to return. I always buy sneakers 1/2 size larger.
For this reasonable price these are worth every penny.

These take a little bit of time to break in, they start off pretty tight compared to other pairs of Romas I've owned. That said, for the price, these are pretty sweet.
Reviewer Mary P Beagin
This is a very good looking casual shoe. It fits well and is comfortable on feet.
