I really liked these shoes at first, but unfortunately the sole on the left boot broke after a few weeks. I walk 6-8 miles a day and swap these shoes out with 4 other pairs of Nikes. I contacted Saucony on their website and they sent me a brand new pair of Saucony Triumph 18s with fast FedEx shipping! I understand that things like this sometimes happen, but I am very pleased with the response from Saucony and Wolverine Worldwide (the parent company). I have a pair of Merrell hiking shoes and they also come highly recommended and are made by Wolverine. This is a very respected company with a great product they stand behind! :) :) :) :)
