text: Very comfortable but not very durable, especially the straps used for the velcro fasteners. By the time the rubber toe of the shoe was ready for a re-sole, the straps were torn just about in half at the point where they rub against the metal grommet hole.<br /><br />Advertised as washable, but that did very little for shoe odor. Synthetic liner seemed to just absorb and trap odor despite repeated scrubbing and washing; had no problems previously with other leather La Sportiva shoes. Probably going back to their Nago line.
