I'm new to this brand, but so far, I'm happy with these shoes, especially given the price point.  I've not had them too long, so it's too early to tell how they'll hold up in the long term.  I can say that I have had more expensive shoes already begin to have problems at this same point in their life (had to leave that brand as it appeared to be a quality control issue and/or a move to much cheaper construction, and the shoes were much too costly for me to endure that; I wasn't the only one with complaints, either).  I guess the only thing I might note...and it's not a negative, just an observation...is that the shoes do feel a tad 'squishy' occasionally when walking on hard surfaces, and it can sometimes lead to just a hint of a feeling of instability.  I think I probably notice this more than others might due to what I'm used to wearing in the recent past before these shoes (something more akin to hiking boots) and the fact that I often wear shoes long enough to really wear out the soles.  I have no problem with it, but I do notice it.
