Was honestly very pleased with this shoe. I'm not really a 'pink and purple' kind of girl, but it's rather difficult to find a decent women's work shoe that not only fits but looks good. I thought I could deal with the hot pink tongue, and honestly only small portion of it is visible when I'm wearing jeans.Don't really need the ESD feature so I ended up removing the insoles that came with it and put different ones in that I found more comfortable, though the shoe was comfortable enough with the original insole if I ever needed the ESD feature. These shoes are very quiet and don't squeak when walking on tile, even when wet. Having worn them frequently in the rain I can attest that they are mostly waterproof. I expected some discomfort while breaking the shoes in, but they fit perfectly fresh out of the box and within the first week I was impressed at how comfortable these shoes are. No break in period needed. Some shoes with hard toes look a bit big and goofy, and I thought these look rather normal (might be because they're black). Uploaded a picture of the shoe and the insoles that come with it (I'd just come in from the rain so the shoes are a bit wet on the outside in the picture). I normally wear an 8.5 wide, which is what I ordered, and it fit exactly, so for me these are true to size. All in all I am extremely impressed. Definitely the most comfortable work shoe I've worn, and 6 months later of wearing them 40 hours a week I have zero complaints. Highly recommend these shoes.UPDATE: Have been wearing these shoes almost daily for two years, and they still look almost brand new. Very durable. They've held up extremely well. I work outdoors frequently so I've worn these in just about every sort of environment, and I've had no problems. I still highly recommend these shoes.
