The quintessential shoe that I have been looking for.
So as a big-footed man wearing a Size 17, I have always been struggling to find a boot or a shoe that fit true to size. Skeptical at first about purchasing and the price point for a sturdy shoe, I took a leap and bought this quasi-boot shoe... okay, fine... work shoe.I was amazed... and humbly satisfied.It fits as if it were a sneaker, but has the sturdiness of a boot (DUH IT'S A WORK SHOE). And most boots (IT'S MODELED AFTER ONE OF THEIR BOOTS, GET OFF ME) you may have to get a size smaller due to it being a bigger type of footwear, but not this one. It truly fits to size. No need to upscale or downscale.My foot is an odd one: I can fit either 15EE, 16W, or a 17M. I opt for more toe room, so I aim for a 17M mostly.Toe room: Roomy. My foot is a little odd, so I love toe room to utilize the toe muscles more effectively.Width: Definitely as expected. I'm flat-footed (ish), so my arch bulges past the arch cut, giving this ugly look in this fantastic shoe, but the arch support isn't *not* there; it's more that this shoe just supports your foot, and will mold to your foot.Arch Support: It's there. If you have room, then get some inserts if you need them. It's a snug-yet-roomy shoe. Kind of an odd way to say it, but it is. Very comfortable and conforming to my type of foot.Overall Fit: For me it gets 5 stars. I wanted to think about how other shoes usually run small or large... Not this... A 17M was right on the money, and I am a very satisfied customer.DRAWBACKS:Lack of variety when size goes up. Only this color is available in my size. I would like to have an all black version, and other varieties. I am definitely going to have more for dressing up, casual, an old pair to get dirty... It is super versatile.Another drawback is the insole. It feels like it is stitched... Should I just sit one on top, or should I pull out the standard insole? Anyone who has more experience, please don't hesitate to share.

Good shoe for winter
Good sturndy shoe with narely tread. It's a bit of a pull to get it on. That's why they have these huge green straps to pull with. The straps stay hidden under my pant leg when wearing. I've worn then for two winters and they still look like new. Impervious to oil and gas.

Solid Boot
I actually love this boot style and durability. While I did not purchase these boots to work in, but the boots are surprisingly comfortable. They definitely need to be broken in, but once broken, they are super comfortable. I see other reviews have had issues with the boots. I will say, these boot are not for construction zones at all. However, if you take care of the boots they will last. If the sole of the boot is damaged due to your work, just take the boots to a cobbler if you live near one.

Excellent, but consider getting slightly bigger than lace up size.
This slip on boot fits tighter and narrower than georgia lace up boots, so consider a little wider or longer size. Excellent quality boots. I have several pairs of their lace up models. Highly recommended boot company.

One Word, Badass!
I’ve had these for over a week plus. And I e been wearing them inside and outside. They break in easy. They slip on easy, and feel just short of snug, but it’s a nice roomy feel. I suggest going a half size down. The construction of these are great, only thing is that they do not breathe; so let your feet air out every once in a while. I wish they had some ventilation, but they supposed to be water resistant, so what ever. Or an option for drain holes or something as a different model. Overall, they look great, feel great. Can be worn in jeans, or like I have baggy pants. Also, if you ever got into a street fight, these would def whoop some ass! Slip resistance has yet to be tested, they might stuck to some surfaces or have a squeak sound, that’s just how they work. Walk on pavement enough you will wear it down to where that squeak goes away. Great boot otherwise.

Very comfortable work shoe
I just received these shoes 2 days ago (12/18/2020). I was going to wait to post a review until I had worn them for a while, but they were so comfortable as soon as I put them on I wanted to go ahead and write the review.Before purchasing them, I was a bit concerned they would be too tight based on the many reviews I had read. I ordered my normal size (11.5 Wide) and I did need to use a shoe horn to get them on, but I was very surprised once my feet were in the shoes - they immediately felt super comfortable. Of course they still need to get broken in, but I wore them outside all day on Friday laying brick pavers and by the end of the day I had no blisters and my feet felt great. I then wore them for about 4 hours again on Saturday with the exact same results. I read some reviews saying the shoes were too tight on the top of the foot, but mine were very snug without feeling overly tight. The snugness made them feel secure.This is the first time I've ever purchased anything from Georgia Giant and I must say I'm very impressed. If the shoes continue to feel the way they do now and last for a while, I'll never need to look for another brand of work shoe.
