text: Last two pairs , soles are worn out, complete with hole in the bottom of the shoe in 6 to 10 months!. I'm looking at my Amazon purchase records right now. I've worn out 5 pairs of these, I like them , I'm a runner with one bruised forefoot , these work. The upper still looks fine when the soles are shot. No unusual wear either , I work in a carpeted office , I only wear them Mon-Fri from 8-5 and they don't last a year..so moving on to something else
