I purchased these new on Rakuten Ichiba in January 2024. I wore them for commuting, but I haven't used them much, so I'm putting them up for sale. I haven't used them for mountain climbing or hiking. Anyway, the fit and feel are superb, and this is my second pair, but I made a slight mistake with the size, so I'm selling them. The cushioning is outstanding. The soles are quite thick. There was a scratch of about 1mm on the heel, so I repaired it. They're great for everyday wear, and they're also waterproof, and the soles have deep grooves, so they might be good to have on hand for the coming snowy season. Highly recommended!! Color: Brown
