Guys, I have purchased the Orazo Coot Size 10 Water-"Resistant" Black color.
All the bills and stuff was in place.. The package included only the shoes and an original bill.

PROS:

(+) Lightweight but strong toe edge. My sister stood on it, and I couldn't feel it, due to the steel toe.

(+) Toe area is very spacey and comfortable. No sweat/ irritation even after hours.

(+) Excellent Grip. One of the Best I ever felt on shoes, including those branded ones.

(+) Overall looks are good, except from front (read in Cons).

(+) Material, Quality, Fit and Finish is great!

(+) High Value For Money, specially when those Bata's & Action's have no such features.

(+) Delivered on due date, alongwith the bill too.

(+) Feedback is good for a safety shoe. Gear changing & rear brake, all under control.

(+) Formal Appeal too, especially the black version. I can use them in College.

CONS:

(-) Takes some time getting used to. Seems a bit bigger sized than than Size 10.

(-) Looks somewhat strange from front, like those fat Charlie Chaplin shoes. But not a big problem. Can be better styled overall, keeping in mind today's times.

(-) I know its for bikers, but it's a bit uncomfortable for brisk walking, running, etc.

(-) Grabs attention among other footwear, so you might still not want to leave it outside a Temple or so...


Now, I'll use them everyday on my College Commute. Durability is the factor left to see, but I think it won't disappoint me there too. A 1 year warranty is there, but it might last longer too... Let's hope for the best.
Thanks to Sir Old Fox, burnrubbernotsoul and Mr. Vir for helping me out.

Overall Feedback: Very positive. Recommended for Road Bikers who want to be safe!
Although, not appropriate for any racing - on foot or on bike.
