Appear to be made well with decent cushion support inside, and not heavy on the feet. Standing and walking for hours at my job has made my feet wide. Sometimes even wide shoes have boxy front giving my toes no room and constant rubbing as I walk. Not with these shoes. So far as I walk in the city haven't felt any issues wearing these. Five stars for getting it right! I'd buy again.

I have been wearing these exact shoes for I ver 12 years. Each pair last more than 3 years and I wear them everyday. Good fit and wide.

I am very happy with the shoes. You get what you pay for and Mephisto shoes continue to deliver comfort and High Quality.

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 like these shoes. They look great and seem to be well made. I have wide feet and these are snug through the middle. I like them enough to wear them around to see if they will stretch a bit.

Great sneakers. Keep the extra straps and use them to wrap the back of your shoes
Reviewer In Transition
Love these shoes. Very comfortable. With Sketcher brand in the past the shoes just didn't last long before wearing out. I hope these last longer.

Reviewer Bionic Hedgehog
Please do not listen to the negative nancies on these reviews. I swear, I have been a member of Amazon since 2004 and it seems the whiners are increasing. These shoes are comfortable as HE**! They dry quickly and breathe big time. Easy on easy off...the review about the heel dropping is plain WRONG. Ugh, what is Magilla Gorilla doing reviews now?
HIGHLY recommended!
PS- Got mine from Half Moon outfitters since I had a credit...much better price on Amazon.
