I started to wear these shoes yesterday and noticed that the upper portion of the leather was cracking. The part from the toe of the shoe to where the bottom of the laces. They have not been worn every day maybe twice a week since Feb 22, 2013. The shoe is comfortable and all I am just having a problem with the upper portion of the Skechers holding up. The top portion wears out (starts Cracking) way before the soles wears out.
