I loved these shoes. As soon as I put them on they felt good so I thought they are worth every penny. I bought them just a few days over one year ago. I've actually never "worn out" a pair of shoes so I expected them to last a long time. They are literally falling apart. The stitching in toe area is coming out. Sooo, I thought I live near their headquarters in Rockford Michigan. My plan was to go to the headquarters store to buy another pair. Yes I liked them that much that I'll spend $100 a year. They didn't have them. How does that happen? So I'm still wearing a pair of shoes falling apart and I'm determined to find another pair not made by wolverine that I can love as much. Really a $100 pair of shoes should not fall apart this fast and I am not hard on shoes.
