Amazing shoe. All round brilliant shoe. Solid, well made, look good. And just so comfortable straight out of the box.One of the few shoes too, that holds well onto my heel. A well shaped heel cup, that is padded and comfortable, holds my foot in with no heel lift at all. And a well padded high tounge holds well onto the top of the foot.Solid grippy sole with good tread. Lots of support under the arch as well. They seem to breathe well as well as being waterproof. Size is good too.

Bought as a gift which was very well received. They are very light weight yet have a strong, rigid structure which feels sturdy. They look good quality and less synthetic than other walking shoes I considered (the suede parts are attractive). The fit was perfect for the recipient so I would advise it is true to size. All in all a good shoe at a competitive price.

Ive had these shoes about 5 months and tested them across the UK and in the alps.They have pros and cons. I would recommend them for someone looking to walk more flat ish trails. I would not recommend them for mountains where the angle of the trail is quite inclined.Pros :- waterproofing works as long as the water level doesn't go over the shoe- quite pretty- comfy on flat walks, and even harder trails/terrain like gravel or tarmac- sizing accurate- i think the sole will last a long time because of the rubber typeCons- because the tongue is so padded, the feet slide around when the terrain gets inclined. This is annoying and also means that its a bit scary wearing them on technical terrain because you cant trust your foot placements.

Something like walking up helvellyn ridges or a big grassy hill would not be great.- they get look dirty very easily- i would like better grip on the solesSo in summary. If youre planning casual flatish walks, theyre fab. And its quite hard to find nice looking hiking shoes. They are good for that.If youre going up mountains, like in the lake district or the alps, get something different. That would have a more secure fit to the shoe.I can happily wear these for 10s of miles in Hampshire in somewhere like the new forest. They drove me mad they were so annoying in the lake district.
