Maybe they do a better job on their cheaper ones, or were more quality
concious before Bill sold the company, but I paid >100.00 for my SFI ones

Within a few months the soles started peeling from uppers at the heels until
one was flapping all the way to the front of the heel portion. This is my
experience YMMV.
