text: After reading the reviews, I ordered a half size smaller.  They fit perfect, and were comfortable right out of the box except that the insole in the left shoe has developed a ridge between my toes and the ball of my feet after a week of wear.  It is like the insole is wrinkling up. This is very uncomfortable to walk on. I put a new insert in them and they fit great. However, after only four months of wear the seams are coming out. I am very disappointed, and surprised, that this is happening to a Caterpillar brand shoe. You can see by the photos that there is plenty of tread left. The shoes still look and feel great, they are just not holding up to everyday wear.
