I wear this shoe in my job as a security guard at a college. I walk at least 5 miles a day, 3 days a week, on a broad variety of surfaces and in every weather condition. I have about 25 miles on them presently and have to say that they are the most supportive and comfortable shoes I have used in the past 10 years. I have tried running shoes, walking shoes, hiking boots...in an effort to find a shoe that was supportive and that absorbed shock. My knees are bad and all the walking is hurting my feet also. I am 61, have high arches, use arch supports, have had knee trouble for a long time....
These shoes are firm like hiking boots (I used Lowa Renegades last)and have a cushioned feel like running shoes. The soles seem to work well when walking from a wet surface such as a rainy sidewalk, onto a dry surface such as a marble floor. My knees and arches are feeling much better because of the reduced trauma to them.
I am not sure whether these are genuine leather or synthetic leather.
I recommend them.
One more thing, I ordered 4E because that was all that was available in wides, and they fit like 2E, so this model must run a bit small.

Fit is fine. Comfortable, no "break-in" needed. If I walk in wet grass more than 10 minutes my feet start to get wet. If they look more grey or purple in the pictures, , , that's the way they are, more grey than brown. If my favorite waterproofing "Snowseal" works, I may order (recommend) more of these shoes. Walk carefully on wet floors, the tread pattern is good for loose ground but not for wet floors.

These shoes were comfortable right out of the box. I have been using New Balance walking, exercise, and tennis shoes for over thirty years and as always bought 1/2 size larger than my dress shoes. I wear mid-weight socks over thin cotton socks.
