I bought these right before we took a 2 week trip to Europe.  I walked in these shoes for miles and miles and miles.  They are so comfortable.  My feet never got tired plus the lined inside was warm.  On really really cold days even with ski socks they didn't keep my feet as warm as I would have liked so I just wore my warmer boots.  I would highly recommend these shoes and living in the south these are perfect winter shoes with really good tread. These are great shoes and I ordered a 1/2 size bigger as I had seen in other reviews to do and they were a perfect fit.  Very well made shoe.
