text: I bought these shoes before a 2 week holiday. I used the shoes daily from 8am to 10pm for 2 straight weeks. I had expected to throw the shoes out on my return however these sturdy shoes show no sign of wear and tear. I use them regularly and they have now become my default caual pair.<br /><br />Good looking, comfortable and well made. All that for a reasonably priced shoe? Shut up and take my 5 stars!
