text: Not a bad shoe for basic walking and working, metal clips for laces are weak and break as do the laces, laces replaced with 550 cord after one month, waterproofing wears out quickly.  I took care of the waterproofing, and would still be wearing them for light duty, but they are basically useless with broken clips and unable to tie them.  Really no better than any other low end garbage you'd find in discount store.
