Blackrock Safety Brogue Mens Safety Work Shoes, Steel Toe Cap, Wide Fit, Black Lightweight Leather Safety Footwear, Slip Resistant Security Shoes, Ideal for Managers - Size 9

I wouldn't call these shoes ugly - but they're not a looker either. They're fine aesthetically. What I am impressed about is that they're very hard wearing. I work in an industry where you are lucky if shoes last 4-5 months. Right now, I've had these shoes for 7 months and I'd bet they'll last a year. They're comfy too. EDIT; I forgot I wrote a review of these shoes. I've now had these shoes 18 months. I have never had shoes last this long. I'm doing 20k steps 5 or 6 times a week, on rough floors. The grips on the bottom of the shoes have barely worn away at all. Inside, where the heel rubs against the shoe, it has worn, but not too bad. These shoes have spare me getting shoes every 4 or 5 months. They'll pass the 2 year mark easy.

The quality of the upper is good, and the sole is what you'd expect for an S1P shoe. However, they are not generous in size and if you have wide feet steer clear. If they did half sizes it would certainly help but a full size bigger would be too big.

Perfect sturdy work safety shoe with the office look. Though don’t expect a parade square shine. Let’s my feet breath. Excellent value, I think they’ll last a good while. Very very happy with my choice

I purchase these quite regularly for work where I have alot of walking to do. These are wide fitting and comfortable to wear throughout the day as well as keeping your feet safe.

I didn't enjoy the product that much. The sole pulled off after 2 years of occasional use

Comfy and affordable I work for the NHS and doing a lot of walking around the hospital for my job and you can’t tell they are toe capped

These shoes look nice and meet the requirements for steel toes for those of us who need to wear them while wearing business clothes. They're really uncomfortable for a long time when new and require a couple of weeks of daily use before they soften up and become a bit more comfortable.

Only lasted 2 months before leather split and became visually unusable in a professional setting. However comfortable and safe.

So gut der Schuh auch aussieht, wenn man ihn täglich trägt, hält das Material kein viertel Jahr durch. An den beanspruchten Stellen bricht er sofort.

La chaussure est marquée (plis au niveau du dessus) après avoir été porté seulement 2 jours, Les Sterling pour le même prix sont plus solides même si cela ne vaut pas certaine marques bien plus reconnues ! Matériaux (pseudo cuir) de mauvaise qualité et pas assez souple ! A éviter !

C'est la deuxième paire que j'achète et j'en suis content.
