I really like these, I haven't had an opportunity to wear them at length but they seem to be of good quality. They do run a little big, I ordered a 7.5 (my normal size) but I could have used a 7. The 7.5 is fine with heavy socks and nice tight laces.<br /><br />Update!<br />I brought these on vacation to Chincoteague and Assateague Islands, I rode bikes in them, hiked and walked on the beach. They stayed comfortable and provided much needed support! They held up great and they are my go to boot for hiking!
