Definitely a good buy for a lightweight pairs of hiking shoes
Definitely a good buy for a lightweight pair of hiking shoes with some water resistant capability and should be durable enough for my planned trip to the last frontier state up north. Purchased these on sales via Amazon for under $30 and is comparable to my much heavier Hi Tec hiking boots. The Shulook probably weighs about maybe around 12 ounces for each shoe and that's good for longer walking and hiking.These advertised as waterproof breathable shoes which are debatable as the mesh upper may be water resistant at best as to be waterproof usually indicate everything is airtight non breathable. I've had these for over a week and have used the Shulook for some walking for about an hour plus and one rainy day and it's more than comfortable enough and doesn't really need breaking in.The heel counter is right in the middle for hardness and offers good heel and ankle stability and the EVA midsole gives good cushioning with the rubber sole tread does well walking on rough terrain and wet slippery surfaces. The clay color is probably not as attractive looking as the black Shulook with red laces but does grow on you as it's an adventurous looking type of shoes. Hopefully the rubber sole is durable and don't won't wear out too fast like my Hi tec boots.

Impressive!
Very impressed so far! I was skeptical of these being a brand I never heard of but I was pleasantly surprised in the fit, comfort, weight, nonslip, and waterproofing. They are made wide and I have a wide foot so no breaking in. Got to test the waterproofing today and feet stayed dry. I can't tell a difference between them and my Sketchers! Have to see how they hold up.

Nice Waterproof Hiker/Outdoor Shoe That Doesn't Break The Bank!
I was looking at an outdoor shoe for some light tactical training and didn't want to spend $150 on Salomon or the likes. These had an overall good rating and looked the part. I especially liked the grey color with the green contrast. I will say that these fit true to size. I am an 11 and the 11 fit perfectly as far as toe room and heal. Oddly, the width is fatter than a normal shoe. I am not sure if this has to do with the waterproof design or whatnot, they just appear wide in the top of the shoe almost like the look of a ski boot. This does not affect the comfort at all. These shoes are very comfortable and offer great padding for the bottom of your foot and ample toe room. I like the laces, they are more of a rope type and seem durable and plenty long to double knot if you like. Eyelets seem durable and as long as you don't yank too forcefully, I cannot see damaging them. The tread seems rugged enough for outdoor terrain but not super hard where they become slippery on asphalt or the likes. As far as the overall weight of the shoe, they are definitely heavier than a pair of normal sneakers, but certainly not heavy. I feel like for a rugged shoe they are about right. As far as the waterproof part, haven't had a chance to test that out, but based on design, I would think as long as you aren't looking for deep puddles, these will be fine.Dollar for dollar, I am impressed with this shoe. They are good looking, comfortable, and affordable. What more could you ask for. Recommended.

Great fit! Very comfortable.
Waterproof so far. The fit is very good. Very comfortable on long walks. I’ll determine durability once I see how long they hold up.

Not Waterproof At All
Fit was OK - the rest - NOT. Wore them a few days at work (indoors) to get used to them before using them outside. First time outside - walked less than 100 yards across wet grass and my socks and both feet were soaked. My first mistake was buying them and my second was wanting to get the last mile out of my Columbia shoes before using these 6 weeks later. I should have known - so that was my bad. Nonetheless I suggest you do not make the same mistake I made - assuming they are waterproof. Certainly the pair I bought was not. Very disappointed.

Change the insoles.
They are light weight, and decent, I definitely recommend changing the insole. The "memory foam" is like walking on concrete and has very little support in the arches. Overall they look good and build well.

So far, really good
I hesitate to write my review now because it's only been 3 weeks since I've had these shoes. In my experience, it's hard to judge shoes until you get to see how long they last. But so far, I couldn't be more pleased with the quality for the money that I paid. They don't claim to be "waterproof", just resistant, but I have had dry feet after walking long distances in fairly wet conditions, which was a pleasant surprise. Now for the test of time. I'll update this review after I get back from Peru in October.
