Bought 7 months ago and unfortunately the sole comes off the side. The shoes are comfortable and I've been happy so far, however I expect a little more durability from 5.11 products. I paid $123 for them last August and recently saw that they were selling for almost half the price on the 5.11 website. Maybe this is an indication that I'm in trouble? I love the 5.11, this is my second pair of shoes from them. I have bought boots from them before and they have been fantastic.
