An Honest Opinion

Here is my honest take on these shoes. I have been wearing the typical plain black "work shoes" since 2001. I've burned through many pairs of work shoes from different brands and for the most part, not a single pair has held up for more than a year or so. This shoe was no exception. I will say that top of the shoe (the part that other people see) is holding up fine after 15 months now. With other shoes I have owned, the top part gets tore up, creased and ugly after a year. I don't abuse my shoes, but I wear them daily and I walk and crouch often. However, it is the other parts of the shoe that concerns me. The memory foam felt awesome for a few months, but around the year mark (or sooner), that memory foam no longer remembered anything. It became flat and nonexistent. Sad considering I sit more than I stand or walk at work, so it's not like I was standing all the time and smashing it down. Also, the tread on my shoes is completely wore off, so any surface that is remotely slippery is unsafe for me to walk in in these shoes. No matter what brand of shoe I buy, whether they're $60 or $20, none of them are that great after a year.
