I've been using these shoes for a couple of weeks with about 100 miles on them. My hybrid rides are typically 16+ miles, with a maximum of 23 miles. I'm driving in a high humidity area and by the time I'm done my clothes are soaking wet. The shoes breathe well and my feet don't buckle which is a big plus. The only inconsistency I have is that the soles are very stiff resulting in a lack of traction on even the roughest concrete or pavement. Another thing that worries me is that they are made in China. Regardless of brand or price, I don't get the normal and expected lifespan out of a shoe. The time will show.
