“First time wearing, I wore them for 8 hours. Super comfortable. Only down side is they may not fit larger calves. Mine are on the smaller side of average (not skinny, but have worn slim shaft boots), and the shaft of these are quite close. There is a narrow fabric width up the back that I didn't notice when buying, and to be honest I don't love, but that may give it some stretch to those who need it. Leather is very good quality. I am always a size US 6, but this is my second pair of Bared shoes and both pairs I took a 35.”
