I got this online for a new job where steel toe shoes are a requirement - this is EXACTLY what I hoped for: 1) Nice and LIGHT weight 2) WIDE at the toes for my healthy barefoot feet (this was my no. 1 requirement) 3) Breathable material 4) Soft, flexible and comfortable. When it arrived I put it on right away for most of the day and it was just a perfect fit. 5) Excelent quality and a makers-care that shows in the detail right up to the extra laces, hinged shoe box and pretty internal wrapper 6) On top of it, it's a pretty shoe that does not look or feel clunky.
