This review is for the Khaki (Guysia) work shoes. These are well made shoes and feel like they will hold up well. All of the materials used are good quality. The insoles are a little firm but not uncomfortable, I will be adding a gel insert to mine for additional cushion. The heel collar is a little higher than most shoes I wear, which are lower cut sneakers and tennis shoes. This higher collar keeps my ankles from bending side to side, which is good when hiking to help prevent injury. For normal wear I found these shoes more comfortable not using the top loops, and then move the laces up to the top if I'm going to go hiking or working on a site where I think footing might be an issue. The steel toe portion of the shoe is strong and does not cave in or bend when I put all of my weight on it. The steel toe does not squeeze my toes or have any rough edges that are uncomfortable, however I can feel it when flexing my toes within the toe box. There is a nice small safety detail on the tongue of the shoe that acts as a reflector. There is also a similar reflector on the back of the heel. These are small but should be effective at night. The laces are also really nice and have a little bit of elasticity to them. An additional pair of laces was included with this product as well which was nice to see. Overall, a really nice, durable shoe with safety in mind.
