I love these shoes for travel. Right now I’m wearing them pretty much all day, every day on a three-week trip through Portugal. They look more like sneakers than typical hiking shoes. Civilized enough for cities and bulletproof on rocky trails. My feet have stayed dry in many a downpour. They’re a good fit for my narrow foot well and very supportive. The length is true to size. No complaints!
The Sypes has great arch support. They do run small by at least an half a size. And they are narrow. My left foot is A and right foot is B and they feel great width-wise.
It fits very well, as if designed exclusively for my wider, high arched foot. The material could be softer but that doesn't affect the wear. In fact, it feels very tough and that it might last a long time. For now I'm very pleased with this shoe.
I’ve been wearing them since their arrival. Good overall support, good arch support and the laces stay tied. I like them! But haven’t had the chance to test their water resistance.
These shoes are high quality with great arch support. I wish they would have worked for me, but the wide size is as narrow as a regular width shoe. The tongue is sewn completely to the shoe which eliminated the ability to loosen the laces for a better fit. Unfortunately, they were just too tight and left my feet feeling numb.
it has good arch support, decent toes box & comfortable. Reason I purchased it for walking around in the rain or snow. I haven't wear it until now..the tongue is pretty thick where it folds dig into my to skin & become uncomfortable. I will need find another boots.
