I purchased these shoes for several reasons, they are waterproof, they have a dark color that repels looking dirty and they are well made.

There was one concern.
There is no defined heal, these have a waffle sole but they have basically flat soles.
If you are on a ladder some prefer having a defined heal to prevent slipping.
I never thought of that but the person I bought them for mentioned that they are very comfortable but people working on a ladder should have a defined sole with a recessed arch.

Overall very nice shoe. Waterproof is very nice.
