It's my second pair of this model. The first pair I bought in 2009 in the United States in the store, has kept so well 5 years. The vulnerability of the shoe is, as other reviewers already described on the heel. There, the padding rubs over time to up the inner plastic reinforcement is exposed and then the heel rubs sore. After 5 years of everyday use common to wear this is possibly justifiable. Especially since the shoe is not expensive in comparison. Another small point is the round in cross-section laces, in which love comes up the laces. When looking at proposing a double loop, the problem has already done. I like the shoe, because it is very convenient for my rather large feet and the upholstery enters very good, the high ride comfort is also very pleasant because I'm not an easy fellow. Select the shoe better a half size larger, because it rather easy short. Who needs more ankle protection, the Moab Mid taking model. That's what I've been using it and for light to moderate mountain hikes, fit is the same.
