I bought the shoes in February and used them until May, so they lasted less than three months. During that time, the sole tread wore down significantly and in some places almost disappeared completely. Additionally, cracks appeared in the sole, which definitely shouldn’t happen. The shoes were used in Arabia, which in my opinion reveals a quality defect—unfortunately, the manufacturer rejected my complaint. In practice, they are not suitable for rough terrain, contrary to the manufacturer’s claims. If it weren't for the cracks and rapid sole wear, the rating would be the highest. The breathable mesh is a plus, although it doesn’t make much difference in temperatures above 30°C. The sole provides good grip, but only until the tread wears down. To sum up—two stars for the service (no complaints), minus three stars for the defectiveness of the shoes. They look nice and are more suitable as an accessory for “tactic fashion” than for intensive use. I only recommend them if you need shoes for a short time and don’t mind throwing them away after a few months.
