This shoe is clearly high-quality processed, than my previous GEOX shoes. The sole is the known common, flexible sole standard. This shoe is constructed somewhat differently. The lacing is an adjustable elastic band. It does not cut the shoe, but draws him like Pusch over the foot. The heel is slightly flexible. Shortly thereafter pulled the pleasant padded tongue taut, the shoe is firmly seated anyway and very comfortable on the foot. The rubber lacing are readily tightening enough voltage and maintenance.
GEOX used today mostly unfortunately a simple insole with textile surface. In the past, much higher quality leather insole has been used. You can see the leather sole for about 12, - Order. I feel more comfortable in the leather soles comfort.
PLUS:
+ High-quality workmanship and material quality
+ Ingenious Schnürungskonzept with elastics (without loops)
+ Breathable mesh over much open outside
+ Felt breathable sole also in problem feet
+ High wearing comfort, good fit from the very first day
+ Shock-resistant toe and -ferse
MINUS:
- Inner sole a bit thin
- Insole textile only, no leather
- Leather sensitive to dirt in color Taupe
The shoe looks like in reality much better than on the photos offer. The clamping range is much flatter on its own feet and makes the shoe look more elegant. He's really less clunky than the photos.
I am very happy as a longtime GEOX-carrier. This shoe is better than others GEOX models that slightly eased last in the build quality.
Addendum after 6 months gestation period:
The bright color variant taupe is very sensitive to dirt and is worn daily at the abutting edges dark and slightly greasy. The upper material can be combined with a brush, clean plenty of warm water and a little liquid detergent. Over time, the upper is always unansehlicher and I mustere the shoe now only half a year of wearing time.
