He has a hard to fit size, and these were just right for him and very comfortable. He already had a pair, but they were starting to show some wear, so these were perfect to replace his old ones. We will be ordering a couple pair, so he will have them to switch off with. He wears them ever day at work, so comfort is important, and it is also important that they hold the deep black color, which they do. We are very happy with these shoes.
