Just received them today. Will update later if something turns into a bug. Replaces a pair of Sketcher work shoes I've owned for several years. To be fair, I only wear them in supervision, not on my instruments. They meet operational safety requirements, but are not suitable for the actual work of a pipe welder. But that aside, it's nice to have "sneakers" instead of full work boots when you have to walk to work all day and have to walk about 15 miles per shift. I hope this pair lasts half as long as the previous one.
