I have only worn these shoes a few times, almost 6 months in some cases and they are already torn. Any impact on any surface can damage the sole, and if you slide off a curb or accidentally hit an uneven surface, the "leather's" thin black coating will come off in large chunks and will need to be tinted black for the eye-catching contrast to reduce. The worst thing is that there is a hole in the sole. They look like I wore them to a construction site. It's scary to think of what will happen if…
