Bought these about a month ago and the left boot top stitching between the toes and laces coming undone. The leather on the right boot near the sole is also peeling. I'm not using the outside of a casual work shoe--no hiking or playing basketball in these guys. Once broken in they're super comfortable and look nice but would apparently they'll only hold up if you keep them in your closet.

Used these last for a late night dinner. Very comfy feels like soft memory foam, felt very light to walk in them. The brown definitely looks better than the black.

Really comfortable for everyday walking. No complaints here!
