I usually wear "barefoot" minimalist footwear, so finding a pair of "normal" boots with a toe box wide enough to not cramp my toes was wonderful. I find the small heel hardly noticeable and the Sonderborgs are made with such beautiful soft leather that they're instantly comfortable. I went up one size as suggested by the sizing chart and the fit is perfect, with room for thick-ish socks and no pressure points anywhere. The crepe sole seems tough and has enough traction for daily casual wear. The nut colour is gorgeous. I now have some great-looking "normal" boots! Love my Sonderborgs!
My new Alba shoes are some of the comfiest shoes I have ever worn and they look great!
Very well made shoes comfortable to wear should last me a long time
