Holds up well.
I usually go through shoes at work fairly quick. I tend to kick a lot of things at work inadvertently, doors, shevling and run over my shoes with wheels when stocking the shelves. I have had these shoes for about a month and they still look new. They are very light weight and I forget that they have a safety toe, as it does not hurt at all when I walk (in other shoes I would stub my toes on the heavy safety toes) but I know they are there as my toes do not get smushed! Also when the floor is wet from moping or rain, while everyone elses shoes are squeaking, mine were noticeably quiet! Everyone was asking me why I wasn't squeaking!

Good quality, ok for standing with toe protection
The shoes have held up the past year, so they have good build quality. No tearing or peeling of leather or anything. Non-slip outsole has been great, I do not work in extremely wet conditions, but even on dry concrete it's good. The shoes are comfortable with the right insoles and arch support inserts, but no surprise there, every pair of shoes I have bought needs them. With those added, they provide good foot support throughout the day standing and walking. I like firm support and these are not squishy outsoles. But if the insoles wear out, then my feet hurt, usually in the ball of the foot, but new insole fixes it. There is plenty of room in the toe box, and the safety toe is one of the main reasons I bought them.
The fit is probably true to size, I have flat feet, low arch and sometimes get Wide, which I got in these shoes. At first I got size 11 1/2 Wide Mens, and they were obviously too big in length, so I exchanged them for 11 Wide. These fit fine lengthwise , but have always been a little loose, making me think I did not need Wide in these shoes at all. They have been fine otherwise. So if you do not always require Wide in shoes, try the standard width first.
The one thing I have not liked with these shoes is the lack of ankle support. May just be a personal thing and not the fault of the shoe. I used to wear boots, but thought I would not miss the support. The thing I notice with these shoes is that the outsole/bottom part is taller/thicker than even my old boots, regular running shoes, or dress shoes, meaning being higher off the ground a bit, and I feel it in my ankles. They have not been unbearable since I've still worn them almost every workday since I got them months ago. My job role changed a few months ago, and I don't have to do as much walking around (but still standing all day with lighter walking) and they have been better. I would not recommend them if you have a ton of walking back and forth to do. I will be going back to wearing work boots, and have these as backup shoes.

Very comfortable great non slip
Thought they looked big and bulky but they weren’t. Nice and light. Non slip soles are terrific.

Comfortable shoes
I spend 50 hours a week at work on my feet walking in concrete. I’ve searched for a good pair of shoes and finally found them. Comfortable and safe.

Extremely comfortable!
This shoe is very light on your feet and I was able to break them in with ease. The fit is very comfortable although I have always worn them with an insole. I spend a lot of time standing at work and they've never hurt or pinched, an issue I have had with other work footwear. Working in a brewery the floor is often wet and so far I have never slipped wearing them, not once. I've been wearing them now for 9 months and there is still plenty of life in them yet. Highly recommend if you're seeking a light and versatile shoe.

YES! Athletic style safety shoe
I work in an environment that lets you choose the safety shoe of your pleasing and I am grateful that there is a style that is feels like a everyday sneaker. I have used other SFC's shoes and they have been tremendous for all various jobs that I have worn them.
