They are pretty good quality, and except for the sole, appear to be lifelong-shoes. Very thick leather that takes forever to break in, but now they're super-comfy. The brown pair I bought in 2009 still look great, but I just wish the soles had those replaceable little rubber buttons, like Sidi's have.
I decided to get myself another pair of Dromarti's in black with the MTB sole and some A530's. The Dromartis will probably take 2 months to arrive, so at least I have the old, white Looks to keep me rolling until they arrive.
