Shoes fit me very well (for an online purchase) and the material doesn't scuff as much as some other materials. I insist on a tread for use in the northeast, which these shoes have, but the tread was completely worn in less than a year. Resole? Costs more than the shoes in my locale. This period included perhaps 10 months of moderate usage in Manhattan (let's call Manhattan an "aggressive walking" district). Despite those reservations, and a tread that even when new wasn't as effective as it looks like it should be, I will buy another pair.

This probably says more about the competition than the build quality of this footwear.
