The man here has never been happy with any shoes by mail order. However, these are so true to size, he now states he will order from no one but LLBean. He is diabetic and very fussy about foot care, and these fit the bill perfectly. And they look good, too.
Seem a little snug even with thinner socks. I was advised to order a 1/2 size down; wish I would have gone with my regular size. Other than that they are comfortable and seem well-made.
