This is one of the most comfortable shoes I've ever worn and an excellent choice for walking or hiking. I only wish it came in more colors, although I've had many compliments on the green. I hope this company produces more styles in the near future.

These are a great city walking shoe. The green seems bright at first, but it dulls down a bit and looks really good. I can match it to a lot of clothing.
