Very poor quality. Purchased in a shoe store. Wore them once, for about 1 hour.. When I put them on the following day I noticed that the upper was tearing apart and would quickly fail completely. I am returning them today. When I called the store, the clerk immediately asked &#34;are they Northside?&#34;. I guess that sums up the quality. My only question - if they are so poorly made why is anyone selling them at all? Buyer beware!
