Overall, I’m satisfied with the footwear. First, about the advantages. This is one of the few models with a widened forefoot area (rather than a narrowed one, as is usually the case), which is very good for my wide feet; for that alone it deserves 10 stars out of five. The material is excellent, the suede is pleasant. The fit on the foot is almost ideal. The weight also deserves 5 points — they’re light and solidly stitched and glued. They don’t get soaked, the foot doesn’t sweat much, and in the evening after a day on your feet, that is especially valuable. Second, about the nuances. The upper looks quite comfortable, quick lacing and all that. There is one but — a leather element is made a bit awkwardly, and the final step of lacing becomes inconvenient; there the tongue and the shaft barely meet at the edges. It’s hard to describe in words. For two days I tried to find the right setup, tightening / loosening the lacing... my foot is neither narrow nor elephantine, just normal. In short, on the third day I gave up on the top lacing, tied a simple knot (well, a bow, of course) one eyelet position lower, and the mid-height boots “quickly turned into” very, very comfortable sneakers. That’s regarding the peculiarities of the upper part. So here it gets 3 stars, and that leaves 8 overall. And now about the disappointment. As for the “barefoot” technology, it seems they rather economized on the insole and the internal construction here... That said, thanks to the really great fit on the foot, such a stiff sole becomes quite acceptable overall. It’s just that during the first half hour, you really want to bring back some FloatFoam, any anatomical sole with an insole or something like that. Quite soon it stops bothering you. Once that same half hour passes, everything is OK. So here too it’s 3 stars, and that leaves 6 stars overall. By the way, the laces are really very sturdy, suitable for heavy boots, easy to handle, and they don’t come undone on their own. The outsole tread, by the way, is made quite well, grippy, but on wet granite and wet metal — where there’s nothing for it to grip — it slips. That gets 4 points. Overall, 5 stars with all the nuances. I think other, more demanding users will be more categorical, and the model will average 4.5–4.8 stars.
