The first day I worn them the leather at the front already started to ware off from mild running, about two months later there was a hole in the stiching in the front. Also I recommend getting a size up, I ordered a 10 1/2 because thats my size for other american shoes, so i got it and it didn't fit, i sent it back and got an 11 it was still a little tight but not enough to for me to really care. Basically only a style shoe, don't get if you plan to wear it everyday, or for running
