Pleasant as its predecessor

The predecessor was already getting on in years and got holes in the uppers. The shoe I use (60 years old) than everyday shoe and also for long runs, although he is a pure running shoe. He has a pleasant wearing comfort and adapts very well to foot. The sole has a good anti-slip profile, that despite longer periods showed no great signs of wear at his predecessor. A bit annoying are the red stripes for me. The predecessor was only gray. Unfortunately, the fabric on the top leaves by wind and heavy rain water. Therefore only 4 points. The relatively long delivery time from England (sportsshoes.com) was announced on 11/09/2014 I ordered, the 20.11. delivered. I have shoe size 43-44. The adequate size was 9.5. So I had already bought the predecessor in March 2011 in real terms for 39.95 and the supplied shoe was consistent in size. With 53.99 the price is indeed higher but still reasonable.
