Only been wearing for a month now and I can already say these are the most comfortable safety shoes I have ever worn. Probably wouldn’t hold up in an outdoor construction environment but if your working indoors mostly as I am it’s all the protection you need. Not waterproof but I spray mine with protectant on the canvas material and it helps. Reason I say they wouldn’t hold up in a outdoor setting is because the sole is made soft for comfort sake and they sacrifice durability for weight reduction.
