Very thin insole. Original arch support seems to be missing. Insert for the shoe is extremely thin compared to the insert of the 517.

Quality

Had them for a few months and still working great

Great shoes for my husband for work, last him about 7 months.

They're true to size, supportive of his foot but not stiff.

These shoes are made for walking and that's just what i'm doing.

Price

That said, great value for the $comfortable and great support in the heal and arch!

These are a really good value, as i have trouble finding 11.

Love this shoe but the price has gone way up probably won’t buy again at the new price still a great product

Shipping

There was a choice of colors to pick from and delivery was quick.

Competitiveness

It's a bit wider than other brands and is perfect for his feet.
