The fit is somewhat on the tight side and the insole used provides nothing in the way of arch support. I learned many years ago that without good arch support my feet would get sore in short order when walking on hard surfaces. Often I add a new insole (PowerStep Pinnacle) that does provide good arch support but there was not enough room to put these into9 the shoe (first having removed the Danner insert) and ave room for my foot with a boot sock on.

The "speed lacing" is not done well. I had to cinch up the first few laces and eyelets and then hold them in place while tightening the upper section of the boot laces. One cannot pull on the laces and get the toe section snug. So it is difficult to get them laced with the proper amount of tension so that the boot supports the foot.
