A good shoe: enough room for a thicker sock, relatively light to walk in, the sole works in any weather. At first it felt a bit clumsy, but after a little break-in it started to work. One star comes from the bad laces that are standard on the shoe (thin and slippery, i.e. difficult to tighten and can't stay on). I changed the Hanwag straps and after that it works.

I actively walk about 20 kilometers a day. That makes almost 600 a month.
That's why I can judge quite quickly whether a shoe is good or bad. These shoes have a very comfortable fit. The grip is very good, as is the insulation. A shoe with size 42 has rarely fit me so well, there are no pressure points. The material also repels wet snow very well, it does not stick to the outer skin. As a result, there is no direct transfer of cold.
I would only wish for half numbers (e.g. 42.5). But that is the only point of criticism.
I think I will only buy VJ winter shoes with spikes in the future.
Overall great value for money!

At first they felt really good on the back and the studs were very slippery, but they weren't slippery inside. They are also quite warm in small frosts, I haven't tried it in really cold ones yet. However, on the second day of use, they started to rub the heel side of the ankle so badly that I had to change the shoes. Hopefully that will get easier with time, so that otherwise good shoes won't go unused.
