It's a very sturdy shoe, maybe too sturdy. It isn't very comfortable. I don't have wide feet but this shoe makes my feet feel cramped. The sole on one side of the pair I bought was glued improperly so it digs into my heel, which sucks when you're hiking. It's a nice looking shoe and it's waterproof and sturdy. I've had this pair for a few months now and I've used them a couple times but still haven't been able to break them in.
