The Pros:  Very comfortable and flexible with a solid feel.  Excellent traction. Great looking.

The Cons:  On the heavy side, and very warm; by far the warmest hiking shoe I've ever worn, which makes them perfect for Winter or for cooler/cold days, but a bit of a challenge on warm or especially hot days (using basic cotton socks).  Also, the shoes make an annoying sound due to how the toes lift off the ground.  I only notice this sound when walking on flat or smooth ground.
