text: Was looking for a pair of wide boots that I can wear for casual as well as the office and also to be waterproof as I ride a motorcycle. 1st impressions when I got the boots was relief as I'm in S'pore and if the boots didn't fit, I would be sorely disappointed with myself and rue the fact that I will need to return the boots.<br /><br />The boots feels light. Looks wise, it does look a little rubbery up close but not so bad when viewed a little further. Have been wearing them for more than a week. Had a slight concern on the 1st day as the small toe on the right foot seems uncomfortable but it was only for a short while and all good for the rest of the day. For the week, nothing spectacular except for the stiffness at the tongue. the adidas adiprene not as cushioning as I expected but still adequate. Didn't manage to test the waterproof feature.<br /><br />In summary, boots within my expectations; it's not great looking, just good enough to not to look odd, whether casual or office. Size wise, I could  have gotten a 0.5 smaller and it will probably still fit but didn't want to take the risk. The only fear I've is,  will the boot soles detach as experienced by some reviewers here.
