★☆☆☆☆
No arch support at all
While the wool is soft, these shoes offer virtually no arch support, which is a major issue for my feet. After just a short walk, my arches were aching. Definitely not suitable if you need any kind of foot stability.

Customer reviews
What customers say: Exceptional comfort and soft wool material make these shoes ideal for everyday wear. Some concerns about sizing and durability have been noted.
★★★★★
Husband loves his new shoes
Bought these for my husband for Christmas and he absolutely loves them. He says they are incredibly comfortable for his long days on his feet. The Natural Black color is also very sleek.
★★★★☆
Solid comfort, a bit warm sometimes
The overall comfort of these shoes is excellent; the SweetFoam cushioning feels great underfoot. The wool material is very soft and generally comfortable for most of the day. On warmer days, however, my feet can get a bit too warm, which is something to consider if you live in a hot climate. Otherwise, a very good everyday sneaker.
★☆☆☆☆
Poor quality for the price
I'm very disappointed with the durability. The wool upper started pilling and looking worn out after only a few weeks of light use. They look cheap now, which isn't what I expected given the premium material and cost.
★★★★★
Walk all day comfortably
These shoes are fantastic for walking long distances. The cushioning is very supportive, and the wool keeps my feet at a comfortable temperature. They've held up well to daily use.
