ThorogoodMen's EH Plain Steel Toe Oxfords

Good shoes if you need steel toe

It's the same great out of the box 9 hour working shoe that I've come to expect from Thorogood/Weinbrenner. Fast service from Amazon. Great deal all the way around.

I really liked the previous brown loafers that Thorogood produced, one the most comfortable work shoes I have ever owned, even better than Red Wings which were much more expensive. Those have been discontinued and replaced with these. The shoe looks very similar, except it no longer comes in brown and it more comfortable. Only caveat is while the sole feels thicker the height of the heel to the toe is noticeable when standing. I am not sure about longevity yet as I have only had these a short while now. They are however very comfortable in my opinion if you can get past the angle of the insole. I will definitely buy moreof these to replace there elders in brown.

Can wear 12 hours straight and feet still ready to go

These shoes are perhaps a bit on the heavy side because they are steel toed, but I feel very stable while wearing them. I can't use my arch supports with them because it makes the shoes too tight, but, the shoe inserts provided give me the necessary support to stand for prolonged periods of time and walking on cement floors. My complaint about these shoes is despite the >$100.00 price tag, the lace these shoes with shoe strings that remind me of black dental floss. My best description is the shoe laces I used with my military low quarters. I hated them so bad that I went to a store about a differ set of thicker laces more to my liking and, doing so improved the appearance of the shoes. I had to wear them a few times to break them in but, afterwards, they are very comfortable and the soles are not slippery.

Wanted a shoe made in USA. I stand on my feet at work a lot. First the leather feels like cardboard and there is no plush liner or anything inside. Totally feels like a dress shoe. Who can wear those all day! And they might be made in USA , but they were sewn wrong. My left shoe where the laces go in, that flap part is crooked and not lined up to the right one. Makes left shoe feel tighter and not correct. Pinches my foot. The steel toe box is not large, the steel toe hits my toes. I ordered the widest width. For supposedly being made here i am honestly ashamed of their workmanship. I don’t know how they are ok sending these out. And just very uncomfortable. I am going to send these back and will find another USA brand. I thought i would give them a shot. Won’t be ever trying this brand again.

too small tight

One shoe fit perfectly, the other was very tight on top, causing severe pain.
