About New Balance Men's Slip Resistant 626 V2 Industrial Shoe
Overall Feedback:
87% positive
68% found them versatile
I use these shoes for 10 hours a day in various conditions like heat, rain, mud, and nut-numbing cold and ice.
69% appreciated the stability, but 31% weren't satisfied
The sole separated in less than a year, indicating poor stability of the shoes.
71% highlighted the strong slip resistance
The shoes have been helpful in preventing slips for both me and my caretakers.
84% liked the durable build
I used these shoes along with another pair for about 2.5 years at my full-time job with corner-to-corner metal, concrete and hazardous chemicals, and both held up decently.
The leather is holding up well and these shoes are more durable than anything Sketchers has.
66% liked the stylish design, but 34% thought they looked plain
The design of the sole brings in small gravel and dirt every time I come into the house, making it time-consuming to clean.
83% found it comfortable
The shoe provides great comfort for my ankle area with padding around it. I feel comfortable while walking and it keeps my foot feeling good with each step.
63% liked the breathable design, but 37% found them retaining heat
I gave it 4 stars for breathability as it gets warm but not sweaty like other shoes. It is also very minimal in my observation.
I have been experiencing wet socks every night and foot odor due to the shoes not having a way for my feet to breathe.
My feet sweat a lot in these shoes because they lack breathability.
The breathability of the shoe is not good, but the soft interior prevents bruising and blistering on my feet during 12-hour shifts.
