These pumps are remarkably light (living up to their name) with a deep foam insert with good arch support and a lining. The leather upper is soft, uniform in color and hand-stitched to perfection. They are true to size (12m) and very comfortable. I find a moccasin style sock with matching fabric panels. Very attractive. Round laces, which encircle the opening of the boot, are stronger and easier to tie than rawhide. Grippy, non-scratch slotted soles complete the kit and prevent slipping on wet surfaces during intended use aboard my sailboat and ashore. I have had many boats from different manufacturers over the years but these are my favourites.
