This product is valued highly already because it has served me in the Air Force. I bought a slightly different version of the shoe. Same from Bates. But the shoe has more of a sporty feel. The tread on the bottom of the shoe is a bit more maneagable to walk in. I do walk maybe a mile or so in them and it feels like my workout shoes for even less then I bought them for. (Wouldn't workout in these shoes though haha.)

I say it's an excellent shoe to buy if image is your game plan. My uncle was also interested in the shoe just recently and told em he could find it on Amazon.
Awesome!
