The shoes have one big drawback—the sole is very flat, wears out quickly and is slippery on wet tiles, for example in stores. Other than that, the shoes are great—very durable, excellent lacing, the high and solid upper has often protected my ankles while walking in the mountains and forests. Perfect for summer, they are indeed breathable. I recommend buying a good, breathable orthopedic insole. I have already worn out two pairs over about seven years, I walk a lot. On the right side, you can see the older shoes, which I wore constantly for three years.

The shoes have just arrived and they look very good. How they will perform at work will be seen over time; I need to wear them for a while. The insole seems to be not very absorbent and hard, but we'll see later. The size matches the chart—I have a 27 cm long foot and chose size 42, which fits perfectly, even with a little room. Even with a thicker, green ZSU sock, they're suitable.
