A nice upgrade!
Oh wow! I'm really impressed with these. This is my first day wearing them and I'm loving it. I've been wearing CAT Argon safety toe shoes for about 10 years now and so far these are a really nice upgrade. I wear a 9.5W in those, and ordered these in 9.5W as well. Perfect fit. Since there are no laces they don't hug the foot as tightly but I don't slip around in them either. They feel very snug but not painfully so. These are much more supple and cushioned than what I'm used to. I'm looking forward to seeing what they're like once they are broken in. My only concern is that other reviews show they may not last long. My company reimburses me for a new pair of safety shoes every year, so I'm hoping they survive at least that long. I'll be sure to revisit this review if they don't. They were $62 as of the date of purchase.UPDATE 2025-07-01: I've been wearing these for a couple months now and I still like them a lot. I have, however, found a little bit of trouble with them. Apparently the insoles are glued in and cannot be removed. I suppose that is kind of mandatory since they are slip-on/slip-off shoes. It wouldn't be a problem except that I started having pain in my feet last week, around my heels. I took these off after work on Friday and didn't put them on again until Monday. My heels were still tender from the week before. I decided I would try new insoles this morning, but when I went to pull the originals out I found out they're quite securely glued in. Except, apparently, for the very edges - there were several places where the rim of the insole had folded over and caused a small lump. These locations align exactly with the tender areas on my heels. I had a few insoles from older shoes ready to go, so I decided "what the heck" and slid a set in right on top of the original ones. Happy to say that if anything, these shoes feel even better now. The "new" insoles have a much more well defined heel cup, and I don't detect even a tiny bit of rubbing. The extra material of the insole seems to have taken up the extra "slop" I mentioned in my original review and they feel more snug and reliable now.Also should mention: Wearing these through a TSA checkpoint last week was really nice. Getting them off and then back on again was so much faster and easier than my regular shoes. Normally I bring a pair of sneakers for casual wear and also a pair of steeltoes for work/training. Since these have been so good to me, I left the sneakers at home and saved a big chunk of space in my carryon bag. Love it!

Super comfy, works well for my bad joints.
I'm really picky when it comes to my shoes. O have a bad knee and and really bad ankle so having a good pair of shoes can make a significant difference.First of all, this is my first pair of "slip on" shoes. Not sure if I'll ever be able to go back to laced shoes again after these. I love meaning and to just step into them and go. I have a lot of joint issues and sometimes putting on traditional shoes was a pain. These are so easy to slip into it's really great.It took a few days to wear in like most new shoes but they weren't overly stiff and broke in quickly. I really like the design and look of these as well as the shade of blue, I've never been a fan of the color blue generally but I really like this shade.The shoes for true to size, I have narrow feet and some shoes end up having a lot of slop in them which is awful for my bad joints. These for really well, not perfect but still very comfortable with adequate support. I did add in some different inserts that provided more arch support, mostly for my bad ankle. They come with decent support that would probably work well for most people though.I'm used to spending quite a bit on my shoes trying to find quality, support and be on my larger size usually means higher cost but these are very reasonable and definitely worth the cost.

Great fit
I started wearing these on the 24th of March. I work nights, 4pm to 2:30am, so I wear them about 13 hours a day. On my feet pretty much all night, on concrete. Real happy with them so far. Cannot discern any specific pressure points on the bottoms of my feet, very comfortable. As far as "Slip In" goes, I do have to roll my foot around a little to get them on, but they fit great afterwards. Having to work around a little to get them on is well worth the great fit. Hope they stay that way. Materials seems well put together, and they are for sure light enough, especially for steel toe shoes. I am currently looking at other styles for a pair of casual shoes. Will for sure be buying again.

Great until they aren't
I started out absolutely loving these shoes. They are comfortable and incredibly easy to slip on. I have kizik and zeba shoes and found this design better than either of them for slipping on quickly and easily. The problem was after about 6 months my heel wore out the back of the shoe opening and now my feet are rubbing against hard plastic and are very uncomfortable. This shoe is very close to being amazing but as it stands, I can only give it 4 stars overall due to how quickly the heel falls apart.

Great work shoe
Comfortable steel toe work shoes. My husband walks over 7000k steps per day, he needs safety shoes with comfort. This is his second pair, great quality shoe, with good support and true to size. The slip on is work shoe is must if you need comfort.

Good shoes for a even better price.
Nice color it's a good change up from black size 12 fits perfectly without being a wide shoe, the new slip on feature is not needed they worked fine before but overall the change doesn't alter the fit in anyway but my preference was the original method.

Best pair of safety shoes I have ever tried
My favorite safety shoes of all time. They are incredibly comfortable and make it effortless to put on and take off with out bending down. I have them staged under my desk in my office and when I need to put them on to go out to the manufacturing floor. These were also pretty affordable too, at less than $60 for the pair. I was very happy with these and they have also held up quite well for me.

These shoes are comfortable and easy to get on you foot.
The shoes are comfortable to wear all day long. They slip on easily and with a toe at the heel slip off easily. They wear relatively well. They suffer from the same problem most molded sole shoes suffer from and that is separation along the material at the sole/ upper junction. I glued the edges once and then the material tore along the junction. But I got about 8 months of good wear from them. They are an overall good purchase.
