I've bought this shoe at local stores and finally purchased on line because they are the consistent, and the same shoe when I order them for the best price.  As stated, this is at least my fourth pair over the years. I usually wear out the insole prior to the rest of the shoe, and buy inserts,  but I'll wear out the tread at least annually.  Saying that, I walk ALOT.  These are great shoes for the winter with their treads.  I'll continue to buy this shoe as it's a great business casual shoe with an all weather aspect to it.

Edited to add 10-months later (Nov. 2013), I've ordered my sixth pair of the same shoe.  I have worn the shoe tread flat and the heel isn't much of a heel anymore so my prior post wearing out the tread is pretty accurate.  Saying that, the shoe leather still looks great, I almost hate to throw them away, however I'm starting to walk funny as they are so worn!  I didn't say this earlier, but it seems like this shoe's price has dropped since I initially bought my first pair at Kohls.  I think this shoe is a great value for the price.

EDITED 1-20-2014 Still like the shoe but am surprised at how fast the tread is wearing on my latest pair after only about four months.  I'm wondering if they changed the composition of the sole of the shoe.
