i like my tirol's, they start off wearable out the box but feel like a bad £200 idea as grip is not that good on smooth ground, but christ, when the sole wear's in they've got the grip of a set of gaff's, and after a year the only wear on them is a 2mm shamford edge on the tip of the sole, and they'er waterproof and your feet are warm in winter and never sweat at all in the summer.

i've had a few brands that people rave about but anything light and comfy with a moulded sole doesn't last more than 5-7 month's.

here's the but, you can't run very good in them and they are quite heavy for a day on the ground.
