As the title says this is a well made shoe.  It is strong yet lightweight.  After a month of wearing it is now comfortable.  But it took a long time to break in.  The leather is on the thick side which is good for durability but bad for initial comfort.  I almost returned the shoe.  I am really glad I did not because it is a good shoe. My only complaint now is that it is a bit hot.  But holes/vents allow water in.  Overall I made a good purchase
