The shoes are light in weight and are great for wearing with dress pants at the office.  The lace gives it some character and texture, as does the grey stripe on the side.  I plan to wear them year round in the office only so am unable to comment on how they fare outside.

The heel and arch support are nice and solid so they do not droop in the middle of your footbed.  I have arch issues so I need to supplement with a pair of strutz and injini socks which add some extra support.  I'm also recovering from tendonitis in my knee so the slope of the shoe is perfect for preventing my bad habit of locking my knees when I stand.

This is my second pair of vegan danskos and I will purchase more in the future.
