I have had the brown pair for a little over a year. I paid about $45 for them at a department store named Kohl's. These shoes have not shown any signs of wearing out despite my rough use of them. I wear them daily. I've worn them in the rain, in snow, and in very cold and hot weather. The seams are not ripped, there's no peeling, the velcro is still intact, and the shoes still look fabulous. The cushion on the heel is sufficient for me, and also has not worn down despite my wearing them every day. I would definitely buy another pair of these, in every color they have. Good products are hard to find. The only thing that has happened to mine that some may consider negative is that the top layer of the insole, the shiny, thin stretchy fabric that your foot lays on top of, has come out in both of the shoes due to the walking I've done in these shoes, leaving just the black foamy-like insole. This has not posed a problem for me at all. Actually, I'm kind of glad that part is gone, it reacted weirdly with my ph levels and made my feet stink. As soon as it was gone, so was the smell.
So overall these shoes have served me well.
