I am only reviewing the general appearance of quality and fit. I returned these shoes because I ordered half a size up and they were still too small. I usually always wear a size 9 in any shoe, occasionally even an 8.5. I ordered these shoes in a 9.5 and my toes touched the end of the shoe, but there was plenty of room in the width (I have a narrow to medium width foot). The quality appears to be fine. For reference, in the lower cut waterproof version of this shoe I wear a size 9.5 and it fits well.
