text: My son originally bought these shoes for work as a Computer Integration Engineer...and mistakenly ordered the non-steel toed version.  Although a little expensive, they have a nice look that is capable of being worn with slacks and polo or button up so I bought them from him.  Big mistake!  They are not comfortable around the ankle.  I tried to wear a couple of times to break them in but couldn't stand them for more than 5 minutes.  If it wasn't for that I may have liked them but for me, they were unwearable.  My son got them back along with his steel toe version and does not have the same problem so I guess it all depends on the person.
