Steeltoe Boss shoes!!!!
"They're Boss shoes!" Then he happily wore them on site through the mud and muck. He loves them. Great value. Nothing beats leather for site steeltoe shoes and these are! So stylish, and comfortable. Use the shoe spoon to get them on as they are tight.

Be wary of the stiff tongue until you break them in.
Cons: The tongue may be stiff and rough on your ankle at first, so heavy sock are advised when first wearing these. Further, trying to slide your foot in these shoes is a much tighter and snug fit then you would expect from a slip-on. Expect to need to use both hands on those tabs on top of the shoe, to pry it open and slide your foot in initially. Honestly, I do not expect to be able to slip on these shoes without needing at least one hand.Notes: I've already replaced the insoles with a pair with stronger arch support. Not a con, as I basically have to do this with any shoe. I will note, that the thick foam insoles I first tried actually did not feel comfortable with these shoes but rather some insoles similar in width as Keen's normal ones.Pros: 13 Wide is normally what I try to find, sometimes settling for a 13 when I can't. 13-W fit here fits just as I expected. The colors, leather, and design are great for casual or work setting. The heel does not rub, a MAJOR PLUS, nor does the lip at the back. So the heel/back of the shoe is very comfortable. While they are not the lightest shoes I've worn, its well within reason for the durability of the soles and the toes. The leather feels reasonably thick, so not expecting to wear a hole through it anytime soon.All in all? Rather happy with the purchase so far for work, and not adverse to wearing them casually so long as I'm not wearing shorts instead of trousers. Definitely wearing thick socks with them starting out though.Looks? Doesn't stand out too much from my typical loafer, so quite happy with the look. Nothing obtrusively "work" or safety about them visually, so I will likely be willing to wear them with anything but shorts in the summer casually.

Comfortable, but tab broke after 3rd use
Nice shoes. The mouth was a little tight around the ankle but they have little pull tabs in the front and back to allow for the elastic to be stretched. This worked well and the shoes were comfortable and stylish.UPDATE: I got the next half size up and everything was much more comfortable. No pinch issues around the ankles and the tab did not break because I no longer need to put the pressure on it.Only issue was that one of those pull tabs wasn't properly stitched and pulled loose on the 3rd use.Disappointing that the return window had just passed.

Love this shoe
I just received these shoes yesterday (9.5 black) and I wore them to work today. So far I absolutely love them. They fit perfectly and are extremely comfortable. I don't know why this shoe doesn't have a higher rating, I can only guess it might be because of the weight. Hey, if you want a superlight shoe maybe this isn't for you. I didn't notice the weight at all while wearing them. I especially liked the cushioning in the heel, very nice. I really like the styling also. I didn't see another shoe on Amazon that looked like this with the features it has. I'll almost definitely buy the brown and eventually I might buy an extra pair of each because it seems like as soon as I find a clothing item I like, immediately they stop making it :-(

Cinderella's shoe does not fit...
Major disappointment. Apparently, Keen's design department does not understand that the wearer of this shoe needs to be allowed to get their foot into the shoe. I've been a Keen work customer for more than 20 years. I normally purchase a hiking style work boot, but thought I'd try something different because my feet are changing. This slip on work shoe looked like a dream, but soon turned into a nightmare. I would have given a 0-star rating. Sorry Keen, not sure what was going on here...maybe a practical joke?

Opening to tight
Once on, the shoe is awesome and looks great, but getting them on was near impossible. The opening was so tight my wife, who wears a size 7.5 (I wear size 10) could barely get them on, so I had to send them back.

Great fit and sturdy
Purchased for outdoor gardening and yard work. They seem to be well constructed and the fit is great. I can stand and work in these all day and my feet feel good with the support provided.
