These look really classy, and should be worn with no socks. I got the light color and it looks nice!I had a problem with size 12 Standard width, I had to return and grab the width one size up -- and I've never had to do that with shoes.However, There are two downsides to this shoe:- They are not the most comfortable shoe- The side presses against my ankle when I walk and it gets sore. (Due to the width upgrade I believe)Otherwise Id gladly get another pair, they are good for work days, but probably not good for hiking!
