Disappointed with the Shoelace Change

I was rather disappointed the shoelace was changed to flat, compared to the previous version I bought in 2018 which was round. I thought the round laces were classy and gave the shoe a European look. The flat laces makes the shoes look like an ordinary sneaker. Plus, the round laces are easier to tie and untie. I wish Karhu goes back to the round laces in the next version.

So many compliments!

I decided to buy these for work, because I just needed something different. I spend all day on my feet in healthcare and have a little leeway for freedom of expression, and I had been looking at a pair of Karhu Albatross for a while. I’m so happy I got them! I have high arches, and these are as cushioned and supportive as any of the other more common brands that healthcare workers generally wear. They’re super comfortable, they look great with my scrubs, and I get comments about them every day. I usually wear an 8.5 or 9, but I sized up to 9.5 in this style, and they’re perfect.
