Great shoes for inclement weather, confusing sizing
I ordered these shoes mainly for dog walking and they are great! Especially in rainy weather as the bottoms really help grip on all kinds of surfaces like slippery steps, wood planks, rocks, pvc decking, etc. At first, I thought the bottoms were too stiff but after a few wears they are more flexible now and I really appreciate the support they give my feet. I have flat feet and need a ton of arch support, the insoles that come with these shoes have much more arch support than other shoes, which I really appreciate. They are definitely water repellent and kept my feet dry in the rain, I wouldn't step in a puddle as they aren't waterproof but they are good enough for my needs. I do wish the tongue was slightly more padded, it's very thin and doesn't have much padding on the top of my feet. I know these are supposed to be unisex so I think that's why the sizing is so tricky. The size chart was confusing to me so I just measured my foot and went with my European size which is 39, and thankfully they fit me, altho a little snug with thick socks on. I usually wear 7.5/8 in US Womens size depending on the brand but if you have wide feet, you would want to order a bigger size as the material doesn't really stretch around your foot. Overall I really like these shoes for outdoor activities in inclement weather.

Really great insoles
I have a pair of Hoka Transports in size 12D, and these Muddy Vibe Si-14s reminded me of them, so I gave them a shot. I ordered size 11, which is what I wear in most shoes, and they fit just right. The included inserts are surprisingly good and much better than the thin ones most shoes come with. They make these feel great underfoot.At first, the shoes felt stiff, almost like my feet were slapping down with each step, but they’re loosening up as I wear them more. I’ve been using them for walks and errands for a few days now, and they’re breaking in nicely.The lacing system, though, is the weak link. The shoes use quick laces with no elastic, so instead of tying them, you hook them over a small metal tab near the top and then pull them tight. It’s similar to what you’d find on a hiking boot. It’s awkward and definitely a two-hand process. The tongue is thin with no padding and tends to shift around when you put them on since there’s no strap that the laces hold in place.Still, once they’re on, they’re comfortable and solid. The insoles make a big difference. I’d buy them again, even with the extra effort it takes to get them on.

Make sure you pay very close attention to the sizing chart.
A good hiking shoe that is waterproof and well made. The innersole is removable making it much easier to air out, or dry out, the interior of the shoe. Very good padding in the sole to help absorb trail shock if you're a trail runner. A good tread on the sole will help make sure your foot stays where you put it (and not slide away). A drawstring lacing system makes cinching these up super fast and easy. That's the good. Now, here's what I am not at all pleased about. The web page description is thus: "Si-14 Men Lightweight Hiking Shoes Breathable Speedlace No-Slip Outdoor Women Trekking Shoes."Did you happen to pick up on the dissonance? They claim that this shoe is a both a men's, and a woman's shoe. So, when ordering, I ordered my wife's shoe size. And these shoes ARE NOT sized in women's sizes. So, if you're a woman and wanting to order a pair of these please remember to order a size and a half down. Or you'll be swimming in your hiking shoes. So, a three star rating because something was most definitely lost in translation on these hikers.

Great shoe
These shoes arrived today. As you can see, they are just as they as pictured!I haven’t worn them outside yet since they just came today. They are very cute. The stitching is nice and the insoles are comfy!They were advertised for men, but I think most women would love the style as well. The purple and blue make them a great alternative with jeans.I love them. They run narrow, so I would recommend you size up if you are going to wear socks with them.They appear to provide good support. I can’t wait to go fur a walk outdoors in them. I am recovering from ankle surgery, and I was looking for a good supportive shoe to wear on a concrete trail.

Size up! It's narrow!
It is a really good shoe with thick cushion and good sole but it is way too narrow and small. I got the size 8 for my 25cm feet and I wear size 8 sneaker usually and occasionally 8.5 and this is definitely one of the shoes I should have size up and got either 8.5 or 9 since it is tight when worn, even when I loose up all of the strings all the way. The thick cushion take a lot of room so I think that is why I makes it smaller overall so size up for sure. But the shoe itself seem sturdy and good for running and hiking long trails. It came in a nice box with tags about its functionality and how to care for it so that's useful information to have.

AWESOME
Great quality shoes. They were neatly packaged and even came with a thank you note. My only gripe is that these shoes are made compact, so if you have a wider foot, be aware! The shoes have amazing grip on wet floors/terrain. The laces adjust tightly and I love how I do not have to tie them! Great set of shoes that are made to last.

Men's run small - Size up for good times.
These are sturdy, light, and water-resistant. They are styled as to go with a variety of looks, and have a nice tread for less than dry walks.When it says size up, it means it. Please do so. I missed it, and I am definitely wishing I had a bit more room. That's on me, so I won't knock it. But I must warn you, as it wasn't hard to miss.
