I've been wearing a pair of these boot/shoes for a little more than a week.  I loved them the instant I put them on.  The insole is quite possibly the most comfortable I have ever worn.  It comes in just in front of the mid-line of my arch and I like it.  My only complaint -- and it's a small one -- is that the laces don't hold a standard tie very well.  However, the laces are long enough that I can double-overhand the first step and double-overhand the bow.  This keeps them tied just fine.  Despite this work-around, I have not sure if these laces are going to hold up over the long haul.

I'll update this in a few months.
