The most comfortable shoe I have worn in my life. Really..no kidding!

My husband has to stand on his feet for twelve hours a work day and says they fit perfect and do not bother his feet at all.

First off, I wear a size 14 in most shoes, including Five Ten Freerider mountain biking shoes. These are only made up to a 13. I heard that they come a little large though and decided to try them out. I'm not sure if this is true across all sizes, but the 13 is more like a 13.75. They ended up fitting me very well. So, be careful on the size.
The main reason I bought these though is that I LOVE the Stealth rubber soles on my MTB shoes and wanted to try out a pair of hiking/approach shoes from Five Ten. Even though the tread pattern doesn't look terribly aggressive, these are the best gripping trail shoes I've owned. They are comfortable all around with a reasonably wide toe box and good cushioning at the top of the tongue and under the ankle. The soles are stiff and took a little while to break in. I still wouldn't say they've "softened" all that much though. The bottom of the shoe is pretty stiff and the inner sole is not very cushy. They are comfortable for wearing all day though. I recently traveled with them for 10 days as my only pair of shoes both walking around town and hiking. So, they're fine. If you like a soft sole or lots of padding though, these are definitely not for you.
The only complaint I have is that these shoes do not breathe well at all. They're mostly a soft leather with a little bit of mesh. The mesh is thick though. My feet get hot in lots of shoes, but these are very hot. The flip side is that they do a decent job of keeping moisture out. During rainy hikes, my feet have stayed pretty dry. For me, the durability is nice. I've beaten up a lot of shoes hiking and I can tell these are going to hold up well. They're very well made and solid.
Overall, I really like these shoes. You just have to be good with the tradeoffs. They choose durability, grip and stiffness over being lightweight and breathable. And I feel like I should repeat that they are not cushy. They have stiff soles, but flex enough to walk around in all day no matter what the terrain. Give them a try if that's what you're after.

I’m 45 years old & I have chronic lower back pain. These are extremely comfortable! Great for long day wear. I usually wear crocs everywhere I go, but these are actually better for times when I’m standing or walking more than I’d like to. I usually wear a size 12 wide in mens shoes but because I wear them in the summer w no socks, I bought an 11.5 reg & they fit perfectly.

This same company offers similar shoes without laces. Personally, I prefer the laces; though the laces are more for looks than anything. Though you can tighten the laces some. . . These are really pull-on shoes.
These shows are quite light. I have the size 8 and they have a weight of 6.9oz. They are very “breathable”. The sole is non-skid. It actually has “Wild Gripper” written on the bottom.
There is nice padding inside. Also nice arch support. Though there is no information. . . I’m assuming they are washable, due to the type of material.
These shoes are Made in India.

It's always a little nerve-wracking to order shoes online. You never know for sure if they will fit until they arrive. Thankfully, these shoes are true to size and fit my son's feel perfectly. He said they are comfortable and didn't require much of a break-in period. He is very happy with them.
