I'm a bit late in my estimate but would like to save time on the purchase. I have to say I was very impressed when I first received them as they were very beautiful. However, the finish held up very poorly with the local Texan elements (at least in my case). After 2 months of use, the ears faded to a light pink color. Color aside they still do what I needed in the aftermarket apart from maintaining a nice finish. I would not buy this particular brand again. I would probably just spend more and buy Kics or Volk cleats. It's really a shame because otherwise Mishimoto makes good products.
