I didn't know anything about Hiking shoes so I bought these for the great price and color.  I got more than I could have hoped for!!  They were super comfy. They fit true to size but I went up 1/2 size so that I could wear a super thick sock.  I'm so pleased with them that I can hardly wait to go hiking again.  They were so comfortables that I will wear them anytime an activity calls for walking or standing.
