Great shoes for walking! I bought them 2 days before a trip to North Carolina. They were comfortable immediately and very lightweight. Perfect for walking both city streets and hiking in the hilly state parks. I appreciated that it is available in wide widths, and my orthotic fit perfectly. I wish the tan was darker or it was available in brown.

Initially comfort was good; but, after first long walk two issues were manifested. One, breathabilty was not good; two, the comfort ridge that fits between the toes and soft pad of foot was not correct and create a blister on the soft pad of my foot. I returned them and recieved a credit for the purchase of a new pair of shoes. I did purchase the MX608V2 (leather/mesh upper) should help breathabilty. Have not yet tried the long walk test.
