Got this for my new hiking hobby. Getting out in the wilderness ... recently caught a case of THE DIVORCE. Its the new Epidemic ..CDC is being muzzled. Anyways, I got these in a size EU50. I typically wear a size 15 which is the equivalent of EU49. Had to return the first pair they fit like size 14s. The shoes look great, good enough to even wear on a date or a night on the town. Scratch the part about a "date". Enjoying my new PEACE... spent 15yrs living on the train tracks ...
