These shoes look and feel great. I've had two pairs of these; One pair, I wore every day for just a little less than a year before the sole started to crack in the middle. This may have been due to my running in them on occasion, but still seemed a little fast to for them to fall apart. The other pair lasted over a year, so I'm not sure. I will definitely buy another pair though.

These are probably the most beautiful shoes I have owned. They are also comfortable. Unfortunately, the soles peeled off at the toe end of the shoe after about 6 months of (moderate) use.
