korkers ahve came a long way and talking too a few of my buddies who own and abused them thisyear they seem too be really durable..they do need maintnance tho..simple stuff liek cleaning out the tracks that the soles slide into and such...usualy the number one problem when someone loses a sole....crud jammed up in there before you slid in the new soles.....
hope that helps ya tim
