I thought the unusual style of this shoe would be a bit uncomfortable. It did take a little getting used to being able to feel the logo under my heel but after a few days I really couldn't feel it anymore. It didn't seem to impress too much in the support area but I was pleasantly surprised how little my feet hurt after a few long shifts. I also thought the faux leather would crease and crack and get really ugly pretty quickly but I've had them for six months of full time work and they look like I've only had them about a week. They are very effectively water resistant and SUPER non-slip. Haven't had a near-fall in the whole six months I've had them and I am clumsy as hell.
