Review for model:

The sports shoes look fashionable but are of average quality. In terms of comfort, they fare better than Haix shoes, but they're not ideal for walking around the city, especially in higher temperatures – for me, comfort ends at 20 degrees Celsius. The price is highly inflated; their real value wouldn't exceed 50 euros. I won't decide to buy another pair of the same. People looking for sporty shoes with a military look, used mainly for leisurely walks, might be interested in them, but it's important to remember that you pay more for the style than for comfort and durability.

Very good sneakers, but they are not suitable for places with a lot of asphalt and stones. They are also not suitable for temperatures above 30°C – wearing them then causes a lot of discomfort due to the high temperature inside. The materials used on the top are fine, but the laces stay in a loop that quickly stretches and breaks. Overall, these are pretty decent shoes, mainly sneakers, although they are not among the best.

Shoes purchased in February - worn until May. Their average lifespan is three months. In such a short time, the tread wore down significantly, reaching the sole in some places. Cracks in the sole also appeared, which is unforgivable. The shoes were used in Arabia. I believe this is a quality defect, but the claim was not accepted by the manufacturer. Apparently and contrary to the manufacturer's assurances, these shoes are not suitable for the outdoors. If it weren't for the cracks and rapid wear of the soles, it would have been five stars. What can I say that's good? The mesh allows for better air circulation, but above 30 degrees Celsius, it won’t work wonders. The sole has good grip on the ground—provided the lugs do not wear off. In summary, I give two stars for the service at militaria (no complaints). The shoe, being subpar—worn, cracking, worn out too quickly—loses three stars. Ideal for tactic fashion because they look nice. I recommend if you are looking for shoes for three months and want to throw them out afterwards.

At first contact, the shoes did not make the best impression on me, but after breaking them in, they are very comfortable. The sizing matches the description—I've always bought shoes in size 43 and these fit very well.

High-quality shoes made with seamless technology. A well-thought-out and effective automatic lacing system. The breathable outer fabric and non-slip sole make them suitable for both city and outdoor use.

The shoes are great, nothing to add, nothing to take away. I wholeheartedly recommend them, the sizing is fine.
