So far, I… The HAIX Black Eagle Safety 42.1 Low shoes are easy to put on and take off. The materials and construction appear to be very high quality, and the overall workmanship is excellent. So far, I have worn these shoes twice while doing outdoor work around my home, including mowing the lawn and cleaning outside areas. They feel like excellent protective shoes for this type of work, and I especially appreciate their substantial toe protection. One of the important reasons I selected these shoes is their Electrical Hazard (EH) rating of up to 18 kV. I do outdoor work on my property, and my lawn connects directly with neighboring lawn areas without barriers or fencing. During Halloween and Christmas, a neighbor sets up various outdoor displays with electrical cables running across the lawn, and these displays sometimes remain in place for several months. With rain and lawn sprinklers creating wet conditions, I am concerned about the possibility of electrical faults involving outdoor wiring. The EH rating gives me an additional level of protection and peace of mind when I am working outside. Of course, I would never intentionally rely on the shoes by knowingly entering an electrical hazard. I certainly have no desire to personally test that 18 kV rating! 😂 Safety footwear should always be considered an additional layer of protection rather than a substitute for avoiding known electrical hazards. While walking, I notice that these shoes feel a little heavier than my previous work boots. I assume some of the additional weight comes from the substantial materials and protective construction. For me, this is an acceptable tradeoff for the added protection. The toe protection and construction are excellent. My only minor criticism is that the front of the shoes seems to curve upward a little more than I would prefer. From an aesthetic standpoint, I don't find the upward-pointing toe quite as visually appealing, although I can certainly tolerate it. I wondered whether this design might be intentional to improve walking or perhaps help keep the toe area above shallow water when moving through wet areas, but that is only my own educated guess. I purchased the size 11 Wide, and they feel comfortable for me to wear. Overall, I am very pleased with the quality, construction, comfort, and protective design of the HAIX Black Eagle Safety 42.1 Low. Based on my experience so far, I like these shoes and would recommend them to others looking for high-quality protective footwear.

Light and breathable

I wanted something that offered protection for my feet on the ambulance, but was also breathable and light for when the weather is hot. These have been amazing. They are slip on with an easy lace to tighten, breathable, Offer puncture and toe protection and were almost immediately broken in. They have more tread than the average shoe and can easily be worn in loose terrain. Haix will be my go to work shoe/boot for the rest of my career

F… I bought these shoes for the summer months for my department. I was hoping that they would work out. As it turns out, it was exactly as I had hoped and expected. The shoe runs true to size. For summer months it’s perfect. Light and breezy with a safety toe. I love it!

Excellent work shoe!

The shoe laces work great, which is something I was concerned about (I've never used laces like this before, but they're great). I work in fields with quite a lot of mesquite with HUGE thorns, but in these shoes my feet have been wonderfully protected! To not have a mesquite thorn in the bottom of my foot is simply outstanding. Mesquite thorns can go straight through the bottom of typical tennis shoes. I love the toe on these, too, and am not worried about anything being dropped on my toes (it's not a steel toe, so the shoe is still pretty light). I ordered my shoes in the size I normally wear, and I am glad I ordered them "wide". I hope this helps. I really like this shoe, and may buy some cushy insoles for them, and will absolutely buy another pair when the time comes. These shoes are simply spectacular for what I need them to do.

Great So Far!
Have worn several different styles of boot in my career, and finally wanted to find a shoe that offered the same protection as my boots, while being lighter and more comfortable. Well, I believe I found them! Definitely heavier than a tennis shoe, but way better than wearing the boots, including being so much cooler.

Great shoes
Awesome lace system, light, and good toe protection. Takes a week or so to break in I thought.

So Far, So Good
I was searching for a shoe that was comfortable and offered the needed protection around the firehouse. While I have only had the shoes for a couple of weeks, they have been a relief from what I was wearing. The only issue is the fit around the tongue and I am learning how to adjust it appropriately.

Comfortable
I wanted sole and toe protection without having to wear boots. This shoe offers the protection I want in a far lighter shoe.
