While I find these shoes very comfortable. After 6 months of my first pair I bought a second, but was cautious as my first was showing that my big toe pressed into the top material. Well, now 1.5 years of wearing the first pair 3x/wk to work (the soles still show very little wear) they now have a hole starting on each of this first pair. The company has no warranty for this and no ability to fix it. So beware of you have toes that might poke a hole. For the price I'd think the material would be more durable.
