I have had these shoes for a while now and I really love them. I would love to replace them, but the price has really skyrocketed since I bought them. These shoes are best for indoor wear. I work in a large hospital and these are perfect for work. They are good for even surface walking outdoors. They fit so well it is like you do not have a shoe on, they bend with the movement of your foot. I do not recommend them for hiking unless you enjoy feeling every rock and bump! I have worn them hiking and everywhere, and they are still in really good shape! I think they would be in perfect shape if I would have thought to spray a shoe protector on them when I first bought them.
