Review: . - The quality, comfort and durability the crux blows my mind. I've worn my pair everyday in work or hiking for the last two years. Still comfortable, laces haven't torn, the sole is bare but that's expected after 2 years. Definitely would recommend to anyone looking for a long lasting, excellent quality and comfortable outdoor shoe
