My husband works on Navy Ships and walks long distances from parking lots, through security, and to the ships in the shipyards. his feet were sore most days, and heavy boots only add to the tiredness. He also walks up and down ladderwells once aboard ship. He loves these lightweight, waterproof shoes. He doesn't think the tread will hold up very long walking on the non-skid surfaces of the ship, however, he does think they are the most comfortable shoe he has ever worn right out of the box.

I think they look better than boots, but he wouldn't tell me that! I know he doesn't complain about foot soreness anymore.
