I'm wearing handmade leather shoes. They are very sturdy even after 5 years of uses. All stitches are holding up great.

I had one pair of Merrell's. They are good but not great. The soles came apart after I spent sometimes walking in heavy rain.

Funny thing is I spend only $25 on the above ones but $175 for Merrell's.

I have 4 pairs of Merrells that I rotate. I was wearing one pair for work and the gore tex failed....I contacted the company since I only wore them for 3 months and the gore tex failed. The company ended up sending me replacement shoes and an RA# to return the defective shoes.

I like the way the Merrells feel and I like how the company took care of my issue.

In the summer I generally wear Teva sandals, but I keep a set of Danner hiking boots in my BOB. In winter I usually wear Bates ultralight duty boots, but again, the hiking boots are always handy. I've put a lot of foot miles on those boots and they work well for me. They'd definately be my go to boots if I needed to put on some miles.
