User Reviews
Very comfortable.. got for doing horses feet. Pleasantly surprised. Figured I'd take a gamble on cheap shoes and seeing it only had a 1 star review. Maybe the other person got the wrong size. Would buy again. They have a sneaker feel nothing rubbing weird. Plenty of toe space as well.
I work in a place that needs ESD shoes or straps, I was sick of the straps so found these. I was amazed that I got them for such a great price seeing as every other ESD shoe I looked at was well over $100.These work great, fit well (I'm between 7-9 in women's shoes sometimes needing wide so got the 8.5 they fit great!) They pass the ESD tester without any problems, and are pretty comfy!
