This is a casual dress shoe that would do well in most work environments whether worn with dress pants or jeans.  The reason I bought these shoes is because they have a nice slip on design due to stretchy gore panels on the side.  I want a work shoe that looks professional but also comfortable.  Previously I was wearing a Skechers shoe that looks very similar to this Timberland design.  One big difference between the shoes is that the stitching of the Skechers would quickly start to fray or unravel whereas with Timberland's I didn't notice any stitching problems after three months of solid wear.  I did have a very small strip of rubber near the big toe area fall off on the outer edge but it is hardly noticeable once the shoe is on the foot.

The shoe is pretty comfortable although not as comfortable as the Skechers since the Skechers had some sort of gel or extra comfortable sole.  For me, the reason I had to deduct a start is that these shoes run a tad narrow.  Despite them being narrow, my foot was still comfortable but eventually the smallest toe on each of my feet started to hurt at the joint on the widest part of my foot.  Initially I didn't know what the source of the pain was as I never had a shoe do this to me before and the pain didn't start until about two months of wearing the shoe.  But that continual pressure on the little toe joint eventually took its toll.  I think my feet have stretched the shoe out now that the problem has reduced but for now I've stopped wearing them so my toes can recover.  It's been a week now and my toes feel better but they are not 100%.  For reference, the widest part of my foot is about 4 inches.

All in all, this is a great comfortable shoe built with quality but it runs on the narrow side I believe unless another part of the shoe design is responsible for my little toe pain.
