These are very nice shoes, they last a long time and this is the second time I have purchased a pair.

- Correction: These were very nice shoes and they used to be very well made, but they got "wise" with the materials and now they are horribly made with very bad synthetic materials.  I don't mind synthetic, actually prefer it, but not the one these shoes have.  Steer clear at all costs!  I hope they return their shoes after a year or so!
