I purchased the predecessor model to this shoe in 2004 and wore them several days per week until the soles started coming loose in October 2009.  These shoes are durable, comfortable, light and safe.  The pair I just threw away when I bought these (same basic shoe) still looked good though they have been worn regularly for more than 5 years!  All they need is a once-over with a shine sponge most of the time.  The previous pair was so durable, I was concerned that Reebok might discontinue them for lack of repeat business.  They look really good with nice sportswear when you want something that is nice but a little less than formal.  Highly recommended. This is a great product!
